БРАТ: Почему Данила Багров — это диагноз 90-м? | Алексей и Анастасия ГОНЧАРОВЫ | ПРОКИНО

In this episode of "PRO KINO," Alexey and Anastasia Goncharov discuss a truly iconic phenomenon in Russian cinema—Alexei Balabanov's "Brother." The conversation was prompted by the unveiling of a monument to the director in Yekaterinburg, shaped like the very same tram from the film. We delve into the atmosphere of "gangster Petersburg" in the 1990s, analyze the character of Danila Bagrov, and try to understand why this character became a symbol of an entire generation.
