A story about the unknown pages of the largest victories of Russian science and technology, about brilliant inventions and strong people.

The film is based on the story of the Oval Sarcophagus with Dionysian scenes from the antique collection of the Pushkin Museum im. A.S. Pushkin. At various times, the owners of the sarcophagus were the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus, the Italian Cardinal Marco Sittico Altemps, and finally, the Minister of Public Education of Russia, Count Sergei Uvarov, who purchased the sarcophagus for his "museum" in the Porechye estate near Moscow. The history of the sarcophagus is an occasion to reflect on the connection between epochs and cultures, the vicissitudes of fate, the mystery of life and death. Filming was carried out in various museums in Moscow, Rome, in the Porechye estate and the Hermitage.

Humanity actively uses the fruits of his discoveries in the 21st century, and the name of the scientist is little known even in his native Fatherland. The film "The First Physicist of Russia" is a fascinating and vivid story about the fate of the discoverer Alexander Grigoryevich Stoletov, whose life was short and difficult, and the trace that he left in science is like the light of a shooting star, bright and long.

A film about the work of Russian microbiologists, discoveries, research expeditions. The film also raises the question of how ideas appear, theories and hypotheses are built.

Forty years ago, a documentary film about Soviet cardiac surgeons was released. Perhaps, for the first time on our screen, doctors reflected on the value of human life, talked about their experiences caused by the death of a patient, about the imperfection of Soviet medicine, the lack of knowledge and responsibility of doctors. For forty years, medicine has made an incredible breakthrough, but the moral problems that plague doctors have remained the same. “You can’t get used to death” is the leitmotif of the paintings, old and new. The film was awarded as the Best Non-Fiction Film at the Russian Film Festival "Window to Europe" - 2016.

One of the inventions of the 20th century that changed the world is television. It appeared thanks to the work of many inventors, one of which is a Russian American, the creator of wireless image transmission technology at a distance, Vladimir Kozmich Zworykin. Paradoxically, he is almost unknown in his homeland.

The film tells about the most familiar to us and at the same time about the most still unexplored substance, about water.

The plot of the 7-episode documentary cycle "Brotherhood of the Bomb" is based on the history of scientific research and searches that led to the creation of atomic and hydrogen weapons. The picture covers events from the discovery of the phenomenon of radioactivity by Pierre and Marie Curie, the first experiments and studies of Rutherford, Bohr, Fermi, Heisenberg, Einstein, Oppenheimer, Kapitsa, Semenov, Landau and other scientists to the testing of the Soviet hydrogen bomb on Novaya Zemlya in 1953. Who will be the first to test the "super bomb"? Who will emerge victorious in this monstrous competition? The film tells how this tacit competition went, in which, fortunately, there were neither winners nor losers, but a new brotherhood of physicists was born.

A film about the history of relations between Galileo Galilei and Pope Urban VIII and about the fate of his treatise "Dialogues on the two most important systems of the world, Ptolemaic and Copernican".

A film about the relationship between humans and robots. Why do anthropomorphic robots cause fear? Can we live with them as full partners? Where is the line between robot and human?

The film is dedicated to the outstanding Russian engineer, inventor, scientist Vladimir Shukhov. Under his leadership, about 500 bridges were designed and built, the first oil pipeline in Russia, the Kievsky railway station in Moscow. The callsigns of the first Soviet radio station, and later the first television programs, were transmitted from antennas installed on the Shabolovskaya radio tower in Moscow, built according to Shukhov's design. In Samarkand, after the earthquake, a beautiful monument of medieval architecture, the minaret of the Ulugbek Madrasah, was restored according to his project. 63 years of engineering work, and more than ten projects completed each year.

A cycle of educational and adventure programs dedicated to all kinds of historical versions, riddles and secrets.

To most of us, mathematics seems abstract, mysterious, complex, and even out of reach. And at the same time, it is the language in which the world speaks to us. Mathematics can be sensual. She has taste, she sounds and has color. It can be felt and it can be touched.

In the sixties of the last century, the most developed countries of the world joined the race to create a new type of aircraft, a supersonic passenger liner. On New Year's Eve 1969 Tu-144 made its first flight. Two months later, the Anglo-French Concorde takes to the skies, but the fate of the Soviet aircraft is less successful. Viewers will see the story of the most ambitious project of Soviet civil aviation full of drama.

The film shows the process of a collective search for an original solution to a mathematical problem. The best specialists from different countries came together at the Berlin Center for Discretization in Geometry and Dynamics to answer the question "What is the largest triangle in ...?" However, the wording of the question will sound completely only at the end of the film, when the problem is solved.

Today, scientists predict several options for the life of the universe. The first option is not the worst: the Universe as it is now has always been and will always exist. The second option: she was born, changed, and someday, sadly, she will die. Most scientists tend to the latter. The Universe was born as a result of an explosion of a small superdense clot of matter, which had great energy, which began to scatter in different directions. But how did the planets and, ultimately, life itself come from energy? Thousands of scientists are looking for the answer to this question. Peter Higgs is the most expensive scientist for the world economy. His theory of the birth of the universe has already cost taxpayers 6 million euros. And this is not the limit. The Large Hadron Collider, which is capable of confirming the Higgs theory, has not even begun to operate at full capacity. And many are sure that they will never start. They believe that nature itself rebels against this. Or God himself. But Peter Higgs is convinced that the particle of the universe he is looking for, the boson, will definitely be discovered. The key to unraveling the "mystery of the Creator" may be very close at hand.

In 1982, 26 children were enrolled in a special physics and mathematics class. Those who got into this elite school were guaranteed a predictable future, the guys were preparing to become mathematicians, physicists and serve their homeland. Then came the restructuring. One of the students in this class was the author and director of the film Ekaterina Eremenko. The film has many poles, subjective honest stories and objective strict physical laws used as metaphors; half the class who left the country and classmates living in Russia; past and present; children and their parents.

The phrase "Black holes" appeared thanks to science fiction, but came into use thanks to science, which thereby confirmed their existence. Black holes remain as much a symbol of a bold scientific hypothesis as white spots are a symbol of scientific mystery.

Why are stars so attractive? With its beauty, unexploredness, great remoteness from the earth? Some made this interest their profession and became scientists, astronomers and astrophysicists, others turned it into a hobby and all their free time from the roofs of houses and even in private observatories observe the starry sky, discovering new stars, giving them names. This film tells about astronomy, astronomers, professionals and amateurs.

A documentary investigation of a sensational event hidden from society for forty years, namely, the jump of two Soviet paratroopers, Pyotr Dolgov and Evgeny Andreev, from the stratosphere from a height of 25 km. The secrecy of this experiment, conducted in 1962, and the death of one of Dolgov's testers deprived the heroes of their well-deserved fame. The investigation conducted by the author of the film, the analysis of materials declassified on his initiative, made it possible to restore the details of the event and return the names of the heroes to the public
