About The Fountain
A story of a Moscow's apartment building that is slowly falling apart, literally. First, the hot water has been cut off by an old man from Asia, who could not stand it being wasted. Then the roof is starting to collapse. Finally, the electricity has been cut off. All the tenants of the building, no matter how different they were, find themselves in the same situation.
Directed by Yuri Mamin, The Fountain leans on a strong ensemble — Viktor Mikhaylov, Zhanna Kerimtayeva, Asankul Kuttubayev — 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 1988.
