Lesson (Season 1)

Lesson (Урок, 2025) is a Russian drama series — stream it online on iFILM. Directed by Sergei Filatov, starring Yura Borisov. His character Anton had a real music career: not a side project, but the actual thing. Then came the accident, his girlfriend Liza's death, and a year inside a rehabilitation clinic. Now there's nothing left of that life.

He comes back to his hometown to his older brother Konstantin, the only person still willing to help. The condition: Anton takes a job as a school teacher. He's used to stages, not classrooms. Teenagers and their particular, urgent, messy problems are a different register. But some of where they are — he recognizes. Daniil Vorobyov and Olga Lerman co-star.

Rated 18+. The series doesn't soften the edges or promise recovery. Borisov plays a man who hasn't decided yet whether he wants to come back — and gets pushed toward that decision anyway. Watch Lesson (2025) online on iFILM.
