Пороги (Season 1)

Porogi (2015) is a Russian drama series directed by Yusup Razykov, available to watch online on iFILM. Two young lieutenants — childhood friends from the same orphanage — report for their first posting in Sosny, a small border town.

For Andrey (Pyotr Barancheyev) the assignment is personal. He grew up here, taken in by Colonel Reutov's family, and arrives expecting to propose to Reutov's daughter Polina. She sees him only as a friend. When she realises her feelings are for his closest companion Dmitry, none of the three gets to choose cleanly. Sergey Yushkevich and Mikhail Gavrilov-Tretyakov play men who never set out to hurt anyone — the series watches them run out of good options anyway. Stream Porogi (2015) online on iFILM.
