About 12 Chairs
Based on the famous novel by Ilya Il'f and Yevgeniy Petrov this two-part-TV-movie tells the story of the of Ostap Bender and Kisa Vorobyaninov who are searching for hidden jewelry, hidden in one of twelve chairs by Vorobyaninov's aristocratic mother-in-law, to hide it during the revolution. But their priest, Father Fyodor found out about it and starts searching for the same chairs. During the movie the story is commented by the authors themselves who are writing it during the process.
Directed by Maksym Papernyk, 12 Chairs leans on a strong ensemble — Nikolay Fomenko, Ilya Oleynikov, Anzhelika Varum — 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 comedy titles of 2004.
