About Call Sign "Passenger"
Propaganda movie about the young artist Ryabinin who cannot stay away from the Russian invasion of Donbass; he leaves his beloved girl in Moscow, a well-fed and calm life, and leaves for the civil war as a militia to capture the tragic events of Russian history and express feelings that only aroused anger in his bohemian environment; he loses his former attachments, “grows up“ and finds himself.
Directed by Ilya Kazankov, Call Sign "Passenger" leans on a strong ensemble — Anton Shagin, Vitaly Kishchenko, Sergey Gorobchenko — 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 war titles of 2024.
