Somebody Else's Game

Somebody Else's Game (Chuzhaya igra, 1991) is a Soviet crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Mikhail, a man of thirty, comes back to his hometown and is pulled into a scheme that was never his to begin with.

Walking away isn't an option. The trail points to Dima, who runs one of the local criminal crews, and that name is tied to the death of the woman Mikhail loved. The deeper he digs, the harder it gets to stop. Directed by Farkhod Abdullaev, with Denis Karasyov and Irina Tychinina.

This is a small, late-Soviet detective story — no genre gloss, but plenty of the worn texture of an era coming apart. Stream Somebody Else's Game (1991) online on iFILM.
