Synopsis
Aniskin Again (1977) is a Soviet detective comedy you can watch online, and it closes out the trilogy about a village policeman who solves crimes without ever raising his voice. Vitaly Ivanov co-directed with Mikhail Zharov, the actor who plays Aniskin himself. The plot kicks off when antique folk-art pieces vanish from the local museum.
There is no chase, no shootout. Aniskin leans on fences, chats with neighbours, notices the small things city investigators miss, and slowly narrows the list. Several villagers fall under suspicion at once, each hiding something of their own, until the trail points to a riverboat where the stolen goods are stashed. Tatyana Peltzer, Lidiya Smirnova and Roman Tkachuk round out the cast.
This two-part film wraps up the story begun in The Village Detective, trading gunfire for peasant cunning, gentle humour and the everyday texture of 1970s rural life. It suits anyone who likes a slow, character-driven mystery where the detective wins by reading people, not by force. Stream Aniskin Again (1977) online on iFILM.
