Synopsis
"Acting" (2025) is a Russian comedy series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Dmitry Nevzorov. Vyacheslav Tretyakov is a genuine movie star, played with unsettling self-confidence by Dmitry Nagiyev. When blogger-critic Nikita Kislyak posts a scathing video about his latest film, Tretyakov drives to the man's hometown to demand it taken down. The confrontation turns into a brawl. The brawl gets filmed.
To stay out of court and recover his reputation, Tretyakov has to meet Kislyak's condition: take the lead role in an obscure provincial theater. No marquee co-stars. No comfortable press junkets. Anton Lapenko's Kislyak turns out to be more than a troll — the man has real principles, which makes him far more difficult to deal with.
The comedy works because both leads earn the conflict. Nagiyev's star is not a cartoon, and Lapenko's critic is not a villain. Stream "Aktërishche" (2025) online on iFILM.
