A new film by Andrei Konchalovsky got into the main competition at the Venice film festival
A new picture of Andrei Konchalovsky talks about the tangled destinies of three people – the Russian emigrant, aristocrat and member of the French Resistance Olga, a French collaborator of Jules and German Helmut, a high-ranking SS officer. The cast also appeared internationally in the movie played by Philip duken, Christian Klauss, Jacob Diehl, Peter Kurt, Jean Denis römer and Caroline Pitti. The shooting took place in Crimea, Moscow and Germany. According to Konchalovsky, the film can be described by the German philosopher Karl Jaspers: “we Cannot allow the horrors of the past were forgotten. It is necessary to remind about the past. It was proved possible, and this possibility remains. Only knowledge can prevent it.”
