About Heads and Tails
To earn money for married life, a young engaged man takes a job as an engineer on a privately operated oil drilling rig in the far North of Russia. A friend's letter brings the sad news that his fiancée has already married someone else and in desperation he quits his job and flies back to Moscow. There all his vast efforts to win her back seem in vain...
Directed by Georgiy Daneliya, Heads and Tails leans on a strong ensemble — Kirill Pirogov, Polina Kutepova, Stanislav Govorukhin — 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 1995.
