Synopsis
Bonus (2018) is a Russian drama series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Valeriya Gay Germanika. Bonus is a young rapper from Volodarovka — a dead-end village in the Astrakhan region — who started rhyming at thirteen and has staked everything on music ever since.
A brawl with locals forces him out of his village. He hits the road to Moscow with his friend Gashik, a drug user and small-time dealer nursing his own half-formed plan: talk his way into driving a rich man's son around. Lana Rayder and Artem Suchkov carry the show through the grind and the occasional lucky break.
Germanika shoots rough and straight — documentary-adjacent, nothing polished — which gives Bonus a texture most Russian come-up stories skip past. Watch Bonus (2018) online on iFILM.
