Леон Кемстач — о дебюте в театре Ермоловой, «Слове пацана» и взрослении

Leon Kemstach spoke about his first major theater role—in the play "Son" at the Yermolova Theater. In the interview, he explains why he'd long wanted to act in theater and how theater differs from film. He recalls his first filming with Anton Bogdanov, admitting that it was scary and difficult at first. Leon also discusses how his mother helps him choose roles and why family counsel is important when making decisions. He discusses teenage maximalism, his experience working with a psychologist, and the responsibility that comes with age. A separate section of the conversation explores his popularity after the series "Slovo Patsana" (The Word of a Boy), his relationships with people from his past, and why he didn't "go crazy." Finally, he shares his plans for education, talks about poetry and his album "Diary of Love," and reflects on his views on relationships, integrity, and his approach to turning 18. 00:00 Welcome and the occasion: Premiere and theater debut 02:25 Why I wanted to go to the theater and how I got the offer 04:50 Mom as a director: How roles are chosen in a family 07:15 First filming with Anton Bogdanov: fear and disappointment 09:40 Role in the play "Son": What is the character similar and what is different 12:05 Theater and cinema: Why there are "no doubles" in the theater 14:30 Stage partners and experience without a theater background 16:55 Popularity after "The Words of a Boy": What was the most difficult 19:20 Poetry and the album "Diary of Love": How she writes and what she plans 21:45 Growing up and turning 18: Responsibility, plans, and a look at the future
