Tatyana Stepanova

A talented girl from the provincial Russian town Pasha Stroganova dreams of becoming an actress. She plays the role of Baba Yaga in the amateur theatre — and does it so organically that the visiting filmmaker offers her the most difficult role in the historical drama about Joan of Arc. She was given not only great acting talent, but the talent of deep, selfless love. A dream comes true: she is invited to the main role, and she begins a completely different life, full of real creative torment, insights and true happiness.

La libération des moeurs depuis la perestroika. Tourné en avril et juin 1990, ce film se veut un reflet aussi authentique que possible de la vie des jeunes filles moscovites et de leurs rapports avec l'amour et le sexe.

An unnamed hero roaming the streets of St Petersburg is befriended by a beggar with a donkey and a slightly deranged prostitute.
