Dear People (Родные люди, 2023) is a Russian family dramedy you can watch online on iFILM. It runs as eight linked novellas about parents and grown-up kids, built around a group of friends who studied together back in the rough 1990s and shared the same dorm.
Life scattered them across the country, yet the bond held. They still text, argue and bail each other out, and every decade they gather to celebrate the birthday of Petrovich, the teacher they all adored. By now their own children have grown up and pulled in different directions — one chases a career, one dodges any responsibility, one quietly burns through the money saved for college. Each story is a trip to a new town and a conversation that leaves the characters seeing their families differently. The ensemble features Sergey Chonishvili, Dmitry Dyuzhev and Dmitry Kulichkov.
A whole rotation of directors led by Oleg Asadulin shaped the almanac, and its strength is recognition rather than plot twists — small domestic scenes anyone with relatives will know. It's an easy, warm watch for a quiet evening when you don't want another thriller. Stream Dear People (2023) online on iFILM.
