From Cairo, Petrov’s group flies to Cape Town. But the plane our heroes are flying on crashes over the jungles of Africa...
Directed by Yury Romanov, Nikolay Temnov, The Big Circle leans on a strong ensemble — Ekaterina Kudryavtseva, V. Zubov, Gennadi Krynkin — 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 1969.
