About Captured by the Ghosts
Maria joins a Pentecostal sect. A young worker, Ivan, who has fallen in love with the girl, tries to save her from the sect's influence, but he is hindered by the head of the sect, the cruel and insidious Laguta, who plays a fatal role in Maria's fate.
Directed by Anatoliy Ivanov, Captured by the Ghosts leans on a strong ensemble — Elena Finogeeva, Oleksandr Denysenko, Sergei Yakovlev — 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 1984.
