Synopsis
The New Guy (2020) is a Russian drama series you can watch online on iFILM. Sixteen-year-old Max transfers from a private Moscow school to an ordinary one in a small provincial town. He barely has time to settle in before he vanishes — gone right after a classmate's birthday party.
The search to find him slowly pulls apart everything the town kept hidden. Secret after secret surfaces: schoolyard bullying, teenage drinking, violence behind apartment doors. It turns out the adults preferred to look away and the other kids stayed silent. The deeper the investigation digs, the harder one plain question becomes — who is actually responsible.
Gleb Kalyuzhny leads the cast, with Irina Guryanova and Oksana Barkovskaya directing. The series treats its teenagers without condescension or sugar-coating, showing how convenient silence can cost someone their life. It's a heavy watch, but an honest one. Stream The New Guy (2020) online on iFILM.
