Luck

Petr, a recently discharged officer, arrives in a tiny mining town in the remote Siberian taiga to hunt for gold. When he finds it, the other prospectors cannot forgive his luck.

Directed by Roman Khrushch, Luck leans on a strong ensemble — Evgeny Tsyganov, Yana Esipovich, Pyotr Zaychenko — 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 action titles of 2005.
