About Winter Evening in Gagry
A young romantic loves step dance but there is only one person who knows this forgotten art. Beglov was a step dance super star back in 50s but as step became unpopular he lost everything. He hates even this word - 'chechotka' (step dance). But somehow the young man convinces him to become his coach and manager.
Directed by Karen Shakhnazarov, Winter Evening in Gagry leans on a strong ensemble — Evgeniy Evstigneev, Aleksandr Pankratov-Chyornyy, Natalya Gundareva — 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 1985.
