About Birthday
Elena Sergeevna was surprised when four of her students appeared at her doorstep with a bouquet of flowers. They had come to wish their teacher a happy birthday. However, their true purpose was different. Under the guise of a birthday wish, they asked her to fulfill a "trivial" request that would determine their future. As the evening progressed, it turned into a cruel farce, where her beloved students played the roles of real scoundrels and ruffians, justifying their actions by the imperfections of the world.
Directed by Svetlana Vragova, Andrey Nikishin, Birthday leans on a strong ensemble — Oksana Mysina, Irina Manuylova, Sergey Pinegin — 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 1988.
