Aleksey Didurov is a great poet, a wonderful prose writer, who created the Rock Cabaret back in the late 70s, thanks to which, without exaggeration, the whole country recognized him. He left us in 2007, and in 2018 he would have turned 70 years old. We want to present his fate against a broad historical, cultural, and especially musical and poetic background. We hope that Alexey Didurov and his pets will return us to the conversation about the 60s - 90s in full.

Cinema is a whole world in which the storyline makes us remember the joyful and sad episodes of our lives, return to childhood, dream about the future.

But very often in films there is a protagonist that goes unnoticed, this is a city.
