A film about the life, games and everyday life of a 7-year-old girl from a dysfunctional family living in a forest near a big city. And, as little Milana finds out, from a normal life.

"Gorbachev. Heaven" is a documentary film about changes that reverberated throughout the world wrought by one man. A film summing-up the life of a man who changed the world in the 20th century. Gorbachev’s short time in power was marked by the collapse of this empire. He was the architect of Glasnost and Perestroika, policies that gave the citizens of the Soviet Union – what Ronald Reagan called “the Evil Empire” – a chance to be free. He tore down the Berlin Wall. But at the same time, under his rule, the Chernobyl nuclear facility exploded and its destruction was concealed. Citizens demanding independence in the Baltic states died. Soldiers wielding shovels brutally suppressed protesters in Tbilisi. And Soviet tanks menaced, and killed, peaceful demonstrators in Baku. The Soviet empire collapsed under him – and he is condemned by his own people. With this burden of the past, this lonely old man is living the last days of his life in an empty house in the suburbs near Moscow.

Detailed information about the film, reviews, articles, interviews and photos are available on the official website of Vitaly Mansky Manski-doc.com.

The acclaimed documentary ALMOST HOLY tells the story of Gennadiy Mohknenko, a Ukrainian pastor who has taken up the fight against child homelessness by forcibly abducting street kids and bringing them to his private rehabilitation center.

Using gripping footage that follows the self-appointed savior's mission over the course of fifteen years, interspersing imagery from a popular Soviet animated TV show; ALMOST HOLY is a bold and captivating portrait of a man fighting to change Ukraine for the better, as its place in a tense political landscape hangs in the balance.

A film about modern Europe. About its two edges, or, more correctly, extremes. About Europe, which begins in the deserted space of Russian Siberia and ends on the cozy beaches of the Bay of Biscay, where even the laws of nature form fundamentally different styles of human existence.

The pipe not only connected, but also inextricably linked THIS Russia with THIS Europe. The film was awarded the National Film Award "Nika" - 2014, nomination Best Non-Fiction Film.

History of the twentieth century. View from the village. The path of the Russian peasantry in time and space from pre-revolutionary Cossack villages and rich Siberian villages to the taiga Ural villages, to the peasant Gulag, with children and the elderly, to certain death. The authors of the documentary trace this tragic Odyssey from the manifesto of 1861 to the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. They offer society a different view of both the pre-revolutionary Russian village and the civil war, which, in their opinion, was not a war of some reds with some whites, but a war of the state against the peasantry, with its people, because the peasants at that moment made up 80 percent of the population. What was behind this unprecedented attempt in history to destroy 10 million of the best, most talented people of the village?
