About Kites Don't Share Their Prey
A Moldovan village in the late forties. Andrei Brume, a Komsomol member, university student and MGB lieutenant, is on a mission to fight a criminal gang. The situation is extremely dramatic. On the one hand, there are night raids by Stratan's gang, on the other - endless official extortion, respectfully referred to as a "state loan", when the chairman of the collective farm, Maria Josan, groping the trigger of a revolver, calls on hard workers to respond to the call of the Motherland...
Directed by Valeriu Gagiu, Kites Don't Share Their Prey leans on a strong ensemble — Nicolae Girlea, Lyubov Polishchuk, Boris Bechet — 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 action titles of 1989.
