Deniskin's Stories (Season 1)

Deniskin's Stories (2024) is a Russian family series you can watch online on iFILM, adapted from Viktor Dragunsky's beloved children's tales. In Moscow, six-year-old Denis is dropped off with his grandfather, also named Denis.

Every day the old man spins stories about a boy his grandson's age who grew up in another time — and those stories come to life. Young Denis tumbles into a carefree Soviet childhood, into a Moscow courtyard full of games, neighborhood friends and first discoveries. Turns out kids are the same in any era: the same curiosity, the same blurted honesty, the same hunger to figure out how the world works. Director Artemy Dragunsky is the writer's own grandson, so the family thread runs real. Gentle viewing that works for parents and children alike. Stream Deniskin's Stories (2024) online on iFILM.
