Synopsis
Summer 1992: Valeriy Goryachev leaves prison to a country that no longer exists. Goryachev i Drugie (1993) is a Russian crime drama you can watch online on iFILM.
Five years inside for financial fraud, and he comes back to a Moscow where socialism is gone, the streets trade in everything at insane prices, and while some scrape by, others are already "making money." Waiting for him are an aging mother in a communal flat, a wife who raised their daughter alone, and an old friend, Pavel, who has reinvented himself as a businessman. Almost everything has changed — except Goryachev himself, whose honesty, stubbornness and dry humor anchor the show. Igor Bochkin leads, with Sergey Garmash, Aleksey Guskov and Vsevolod Larionov.
The role was written specifically for Bochkin, and it shows: a vivid portrait of an old-school man dropped into the wild new reality of the early post-Soviet years. Good viewing if you want the 1990s without the gloss. Stream Goryachev i Drugie online on iFILM.
