About How Is It Going, Crucians?
A retired KGB colonel, having collected at his country house a file cabinet of people who had cooperated with the Committee in previous years, calls them back to his house and makes them perform certain tasks. But even on it there are bigger sharks - representatives of the mafia, who have guessed how much money they can now get from the former "peasants". However, one of them, dreaming to finish with the archive, will somewhat disrupt the plans of the above-mentioned characters.
Directed by Mikhail Shveitser, Sofiya Milkina, How Is It Going, Crucians? leans on a strong ensemble — Nikolai Pastukhov, Valeriy Zolotukhin, Anna Nazaryeva — 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 1991.
