Fyodor Bondarchuk: “The viewer has started to watch Russian projects more actively”

Fyodor Bondarchuk became the director of one of the first hits of the revived film distribution – the military drama “9th Company” (2005), and his “Stalingrad” (2013) held the title of the highest grossing Russian film for four years. Today, Bondarchuk is not only a producer and director of blockbusters, but also one of the key players online: as a producer (Fisher, Chicky, etc.) and as a director (Psych) of successful series for video services.

On March 30, the second multi-part project of the director, “Actresses”, will start on the Wink and Kinopoisk platforms. About why the “abnormal” life of the characters of the series today is rather nostalgic, how the interests of TV and streaming converge, as well as what new projects are currently in development, the general producer of NMG Studio and the founder of Art Pictures Studio Fyodor Bondarchuk told in an interview with Vedomosti .
