10. “The End of a Beautiful Era” (2015)
The director of the film is Stanislav Govorukhin, which means that the viewer will not be disappointed with either the plot or the selection of actors. A good movie about the stagnant Brezhnev era, about dissidentism and politicized life in the USSR.

9. “About Love” (2015)
To the question of what love is, each person will answer differently. So the heroes of this picture show different love. Or rather, what they take for love.
