The Airport Incident (Season 1)

The Airport Incident (1989) is a Soviet detective drama series you can watch online on iFILM. Director Yunus Yusupov sets the story in Dushanbe, giving it a Central Asian backdrop that stands out even within the broader Soviet production landscape.

Militia Major Dzhuraev opens with what looks like a simple jewellery theft from actress Kurbatova — the suspect already confessed. Then the airport case cuts in: two security officers are poisoned and a shipment of handcrafted gold pieces bound for an international exhibition vanishes mid-transit. The director who quietly rerouted the cargo onto an ordinary passenger flight moves to the top of the suspect list. Starring Sergei Bondarchuk, Zakir Kadyrov and Paul Butkevich.
