About Родная
At the heart of the narrative lies the touching story of an elderly couple whose love is put to the test by time, illness, and technological progress. An unusual helper enters their lives—a modern robotic rover—which unexpectedly becomes a bridge between the past and the present. Through the lens of technology, the film explores timeless themes: love, memory, family bonds, and humanity.
Directed by Ivan Lavrenkov, Родная leans on a strong ensemble — Elena Ivitskaya, Vladimir Dubrovskiy, Sergey Gudelev — 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 2026.
