Минута

After the fall of a large meteorite, scientists discovered that the radiation emanating from it has amazing properties. When touching a meteorite, a person lives in absolute inner harmony for the rest of his life. Now every adult citizen has the right to touch in an organized queue, a referral from a doctor, a quota for veterans, pensioners, employees of the state apparatus and strategic industries, as well as by purchasing a voucher at a commercial price.

Directed by Aleksey Polyakov, Минута leans on a strong ensemble — Maxim Amelchenko, Vitaly Borovik, Elena Ksenofontova — 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 2024.
