Synopsis
Arrhythmia (2017) is a Russian drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Boris Khlebnikov and starring Alexander Yatsenko and Irina Gorbacheva. Oleg is a paramedic in his late twenties — gifted, reckless, convinced that as long as he keeps making the calls, nothing else matters.
His wife Katya, a nurse in the ER, has run out of patience. She asks for a divorce. Oleg agrees to a trial separation, moves to the couch, and keeps working — night shifts, drinking between calls, ignoring the new hospital chief who wants everything done by the book. Khlebnikov doesn't frame this as a workplace drama or a breakup story. He holds both at once, quietly, without forcing either into something clean.
The film took the Grand Prix at Kinotavr 2017, with Yatsenko picking up the best actor prize alongside. Shot across 116 minutes with no wasted scenes, it's one of the most direct films about exhaustion and love in Russian cinema in years. Stream Arrhythmia (2017) online on iFILM.
