Wolves

Rustam is a young guy who lives alone with his mother without a father. He did not enter the road institute, and although his mother every time persuades him to find at least some work, he came up with an original way of earning. He buys a vodka set during the day and hides it in an automatic storage room, and in the evening, when alcohol is almost impossible to buy, he finds customers and resells vodka to them. With the money he earns, he spends time with his girlfriend. But one day, looking for a free compartment in the storage room, he finds bags of white powder in one of them.

Directed by Sabir Nazarmukhamedov, Wolves leans on a strong ensemble — Farhad Mahmudov, Husan Musaboyev, Sherkuzi Gaziev — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1988.
