Hey, how's the song called?
Stop!
Stop! Stop! Who let this freak on the set?
Lazy asses! Kick him the hell out! What are you even paid for?
Last name?
Bagrov.
Danila Sergeevich.
Born in 1975. Vokzalnaya st. 22.
Employment?
Just got back from the Army.
Where've you been stationed?
In the Army.
Want a job in police?
No.
You've broken their security guy's arm, nearly put his eye out too.
Were you drunk, I'd send you to jail.
Free to go.
Find a job in a week, or I'll add you to the watch list.
Have I broken the guy's arm, really?
No, dislocated.
And that one, who shouted, who was he?
Film director.
So how's the song called?
"Wings". By Nautilus.
Sergei Bagrov, the father, born in 1942, multiple convictions of thievery.
Murdered in a correctional facility, January 1982.
My classmate.
You have "Wings" of Nautiluses? A CD.
What do you want here? Go away, I'll call the police.
Still picking fights. Chop some firewood, more use of that.
I'd rather you stayed in the Army. You'll get killed faster here, stupid.
Keep toying with your dumb thing!
You'll just rot in prison, like your useless father.
My Vitenka is the only hope I have.
Important man there, in Leningrad.
Here, look.
My goodness, so little, so cute you all were.
Look!
Seen that already. - Well look again!
Why don't you go to your brother's, in Leningrad.
I'm to die soon, and he was always like a father to you.
That's your blood, your closest person in all the world.
My Vitenka!
BROTHER
"Haven't to Moscow been - haven't beauty seen."
Chechnyan is out of prison. We need to get rid of him.
He's taking over our turf. Says, "It was mine before". Collects from our places.
Bosses agreed to settle peacefully. Ours don't want war with theirs.
But Chechniyan, we had it up to here with him.
I'm offering 15.
You know me, my prices are real.
$15,000... Good money, sure...
but for Chechnyan...
It's my head on the line.
- How much? - 20. 10 up front.
A week for preparations?
Two.
Tatar got too cocky.
Took too much up front.
Go to the bazaar. Stay out of sight, watch him.
"Measure your load, or you'll stumble middle road."
St.Petersburg (former Leningrad)
Excuse me, you have "Wings" by Nautiluses?
No, it's sold out very quickly.
But come again, we'll have more.
You have anything else then?
Of course.
Here, "Titanic on Fontanka", with Grebenchikov.
And this is "Account for ten years".
Best songs, performed by their friends.
How much is this?
This one's 75,800 roubles, this one 78,000.
'Sup winos, how's business?
Got watches?
Payment is 50 roubles now.
Payment, you drunk, cash payment.
Why so surprised? Taxes.
But l haven't...
Confiscation of merchandise then.
l haven't sold anything yet! - Confiscation, I told you.
Sonny boy, I've not.. I haven't sold nothing yet...
City... City is a terrible force.
The bigger the city, the stronger it is. It sucks you in.
Only strong can claw out.
Rarely, too...
What's your name?
Hoffmann.
You a Jew?
German.
I just don't like Jews that much.
- And the Germans? - Germans? Fine, I guess.
- What's the difference? - Shut up already.
What is this place?
Motherland.
My ancestors lie here.
Have a seat.
- Here. - Wait!
- What's that? - It was a present for my brother.
Well, just the same I guess.
Oh! Give me.
(foreign language)
Hey girl, what your name?
Tickets please.
No ticket.
Tickets please.
No ticket.
Your tickets, please.
You not Russian or what?
I tell in Russian: no ticket!
Pay the fine, please.
What fine? I'm handicapped person.
Pay the fine, or show the ticket.
You sit down, sit. Take load off legs, sit.
But if you don't have ticket, you're supposed to pay the fine.
(foreign language)
You not understanding or what? (foreign language)
Get lost, you!
Pay the fine.
Brother, don't kill. Take money, take all, don't kill, brother...
Here.
You ain't my brother, black asshole.
- How much for the fine? - 7,000 roubles.
Run.
Ok, so you'll get there this way:
Straight ahead, and to the right.
Bye.
Hi. Wow, cool player. Lemme check out.
Why listen to this crap? Got something cool?
- You dumb? - No.
Got a cool player, why dress like a nerd?
Got acid? Cash? Got cash?
No.
Allright, I'm Kat. I'm always here. You have cash, come by, we'll party.
Ok, bye!
It's open!
On your knees. Hands forward.
I'm looking for my brother. Bagrov Victor, he used to live here.
I'm his younger brother, just two days in Leningrad.
My mother gave me this address: Moika 1, apt 8.
Well hello there, brother.
It's Petersburg now, not Leningrad.
"Peter". Beautiful city, but not the most important.
We've got to go to Moscow. All the power is in Moscow.
I'll sort something out here, then - out to Moscow.
How's mother?
Fine.
Here, she sent this for you.
Go ahead, drink. I've got some business today.
Here, for the first few days.
Buy better clothes. Rent an apartment or single room.
Up to $100/month for now, then we'll see.
How was the Army?
Fine.
Mother wrote, you'd been to war. (Chechen–Russian conflict, 1994)
I've just been slacking off at the HQ. Doing paperwork.
Can you shoot?
Been to a shooting range a couple times.
Hi. You have "Wings" by Nautiluses?
Well, give me what you have.
He's a Checniyan ex-terrorist, you know.
They also went to Peter from Moscow.
They're taking everything over, brother.
I've told you before.
This guy got the bazaar, pressures Russians. And I have a business there.
He knows we are weak now. Tries to pressure us out.
Bought everybody, killed everybody else...
Now, I'm next. And if I wouldn't pay...
So it's either them or us. That's the deal, brother.
He likes to walk around the bazaar in the afternoon.
Enjoying his land, the bastard.
That's the best spot.
His security is always around. 2 or 3 combatants.
All blacks, packing heat... animals.
So, not a simple case.
Look around. Think how to get away after.
I'd rather give that money to you. There's $2,000.
Don't come to my place, it's dangerous.
Call my mobile if anything.
Here's a gun, clip, and $1,600. We'll settle up the gun price later.
Keep it.
Hello, this is us. Tatar hasn't shown.
How much for the potatoes?
1,500 roubles.
Making money?
Come on, you.
Hey, that thug is looking for you now. Got some friends too.
German, I need a small room downtown. Quiet one. Ask your guys, would you.
Here.
Thanks.
Found your brother okay?
Yep.
Who?
It is Zinka, open up!
What Zinka? Go away, whore!
Lost your mind, geezer? Open up! It's Zinka, I'm telling you!
Old fool, rot for brains... Come on!
- What? - Brought a tenant for you.
Give him.
Why tenant?...
How're you doing here, old guy?
Hey, listen here, friend! Buy watermelon.
Tasty?
Sure! Look, what a miracle. Yesterday, ate seven myself. By myself.
Okay.
- How much? - Just 6,000 roubles.
Thank you very much! For your pleasure.
That one, with the watermelon!
Need help?
Just go, go! I'll find you.
lt wasn't Tatar. Young guy.
Did everything great. A professional.
Chechniyan got dropped, guy bolted. Got on a tram, yellow one. And got away.
I've put a round in him. Motherfucker put Shisha down.
Shisha? For good?
Don't know. He's in the hospital.
Why did you shoot, if it wasn't Tatar?
But...
Tatar gets paid anyway, dumbass.
Maybe it's good that the new guy offed Shisha. Nobody will think we're in this.
That Tatar!..
"Life hangs by a thread, yet he's thinking of the wealth."
You need a hospital.
l can't go to a hospital, German.
It's ok, German.
We'll push through.
Zina! Zina!
Wish I met you in Kursk battle of 1943...
Zina, come here.
Get more vodka, strong one...
And in the pharmacy, bandages... And streptocide.
And some antibiotics.
And get something for the grampa. To stop his nagging.
German, you are smart.
Tell me, what do we live for?
Everyone decides for himself.
There is a proverb:
"If it's good for a Russian - it's death for a German."
I live to disprove it.
So, you have a girlfriend?
What about Zinka?
Got the black eye for her, are you?
Fine.
You're a good man, German.
They've closed the store downstairs.
What are you waiting for? Drive.
What happened to your face?
Husband.
Need help?
I'm fine.
Your hitchhiker from earlier, where's he?
Jumped off. At the corner of Srednego and 18th.
That was a long drive.
Yep.
Why didn't you call the police?
Guy's a sharpshooter.
That he is.
You watch it now. If you lied, I'll punish you.
"Money don't make happy life, happiness is faithful wife".
Hello.
Where were you? Nautilus have just released a new CD.
Called "Yablokitai". Already sold out.
But we've got something else.
I'll take it.
Tatar? It's me.
Let's meet. We have business to discuss.
What's with the black eye?
It's my husband. When he's drunk...
They've been looking for you.
I told them you jumped at Sredny.
How's the wound?
It's all right.
Hey, I'm starving.
Want to go to my place?
What about the husband?
Husband, shmusband.
- What's your name? - Danila.
I'm Sveta.
This is "play".
This here is "stop".
Rewinds back and forward.
This is "volume".
Got it? Got it?
Give me the phone.
What?
Phone.
Neighbours will pick up.
Give it to me. To make a call.
Husband?
Tell me.
I don't want to.
Hello.
Hello, brother. Give me some money, okay?
Danya! I've been looking all over! Where are you?
Hello! Brother, you're breaking up.
Dial me on another number, 311-05-36, okay?
Danya? Oh, brother, that was something.
Where've you been?
You okay? Hey, come to my place right away. Take a cab.
Nah. I'm going to Nautilus' show tonight. l'll stop by tomorrow, then.
Come on, don't be upset.
I'll tell you some other time.
Let's go, we'll be late.
- Hi. - Hello!
- Got booze? - Yep.
- I thought you don't like this music? - It's the party!
New getup, I see? Got yourself some cash?
I will, tomorrow.
I know where to get fine weed. Wanna smoke some? Here, call me.
- That's your mum? - No.
Ok, bye.
- Who's the skank? - Don't mind her.
You've done a good deed, brother.
Helped me, and many other people.
Only Russians will trade on the bazaar now.
What about Germans?
Germans?
Will Germans trade?
What Germans?
You know, the Germans.
Why Germans?
Brother, I have a proposition.
Let's open a firm. "Bagrov Brothers". How's that sound?
No, tell me. You like it?
What are we going to do?
Business. Whatever.
More importantly, there's a problem. A competitor.
Roundface. That's what they call him.
It's a surprise. Surprise!
Can I come over?
Can it play your CDs too?
Sure. Which button is "play"?
Green one.
What's that?
Nautilus' anniversary, live concert. Very rare, hard to get.
They have Shevchuk, Kinchev, Nastya - everybody.
Yes?
No.
No, I can't today.
Watching TV.
I said no.
I'm done talking to you. Bye.
Husband?
No, it's my friend at work. Asked to take her shift.
That jerks, sold me some shitty copy.
Where've you been in the Army?
At the HQ.
Who are you?
I'm Danila. Who are you?
Me? Pavel Eugrafovich. Where is Svetka?
Svetka? She's not here.
And you, Pavel Eugrafovich, listen very carefully.
You're going to give me the keys,
and then you're going to forget this address and phone number. Got it?
Not cool to punch in the balls...
Keys.
I see you again, I'll kill you.
We'll see about that.
Kat? Hi, it's Danila.
Remember? CD player guy?
You gave me the phone number at the show.
You said we'll party if I have cash.
Yes, I have.
It's you. I thought, Danila who? what player?
Give me the money.
Here.
Let's smoke some now, for starters?
What are they singing about?
Who the fuck cares? Song's cool.
I don't like it.
This moron is hot for Nautiluses.
Your american music is shit.
Why are you arguing? I'm telling you, music is shit. Why argue.
You people are, too... Soon, your America will be kaput.
We'll show you guys what's what...
Understand?
Leave him alone, he's French. Let's go. - What's the difference?
You have contraceptives?
Why?
What do you mean why? You what, expected rest of the cash back?
Janna should have some.
What's that?
To sober up.
Let's go already.
Hello!
Danya?
Help me out, brother! I feel all sick, come sort something out instead of me.
Just behind Pribaltiskaya hotel, on Vasilievskiy. 5 pm.
Look for a Volvo with two guys. They'll explain.
They ain't got any brains, so... you just see what you can do.
Brother, I ain't got any too. I have such a headache.
Brother! If you don't help, I'm done. Help me out.
It's a part of our common business.
I can't explain by phone, you understand?
Take everything you have, money's not an issue. Help me out, brother!
Fine.
What's up, gangsters.
Found the bastard yesterday.
Tough one. Went in hiding for almost half a year.
He's back now. Stays at his friend's.
We'll wait for him in the corridor.
With the three of us?
Say, you have a headache pill?
No!
There is a back door. Right in the apartment, I've checked.
And a stairway to the attic. We can do it there, too.
Why are there three of us?
Me and Flatiron are a team.
You have guns at least?
What do you think, for this kind of cash?
Ring it.
Makar, you?
Quiet, bastard!
On the floor. On the floor!
Where is he?
Who?
Don't mess with me, bitch.
Went to the subway station, to get vodka. He'll be back soon. Don't shoot, please!
Nobody there.
Watch it, you bastard.
Flatiron, tie him up!
Don't show yourself in the window.
You have music?
On the floor!
Guys! It's probably wrong apartment. I probably need the one next floor.
It's not him.
Who is this?
What's your name?
Stepan.
Don't be scared, Stepan. We won't hurt you.
Just sit tight and don't move.
All right? - All right.
What do you do?
I'm a director. On "Radio One".
Director? I've seen one earlier, there was this movie clip...
They're all homos!
Nobody's going to hurt you. My word for it.
You be quiet.
We'll wait for a friend, have a talk, and let you go.
If anything's wrong, I'll shoot you in the eye, bitch!
You have a headache pill, Stepa?
No? That's a pity.
Careful, bitch, I'll bust a cap on you.
"Birthday". Say, "birthday".
I'm having a birthday!
How long to walk from the subway?
15 minutes.
He's not here in 5 minutes - you're dead.
Quiet!
Hi! - Hi.
Is the party here?
No.
Slava! What did I tell you? Top floor, to the left.
Excuse me.
I'll be back.
Quiet, you bastard!
Bon appetit!
Greetings to everyone!
(Russian 90's rock stars, joined by the lead singer of Nautilus)
What do you want?
You have a headache pill?
I'm super hangover.
Drink some vodka instead.
Thanks, I'd take a pill.
Well, let's go then.
Here, get better.
Can I just sit here for a moment?
Sure.
You tried to bolt? We were nearly whaked!
If I wanted to bolt, I would.
Fine, we'll leave from the back.
Flatiron, deal with this one.
Wait, I'll do it. Give me.
Colt...
There, there, now. We had a deal, remember.
It's over now. Let it go.
See how it happens.
I actually don't like directors that much.
You're an okay guy, though.
Hey, you know Butusov from Nautilus?
I like their music a lot.
I heard they have a new album, "Yablokitai"?
You have it?
Could you lend it to me, to make a copy?
I'm Danila.
Help me out here, okay?
Well... I'll go now?
Let's have a drink.
Zina?
This is my friend Stepa.
Well... I'll go now?
Good night.
Come again.
Sorry about all that.
What are you looking at?
I saved good people. This scrawny one too.
God is your judge.
German, they are in the crypt, near the fence. Bury them decently.
Hello. - Hi.
Husband home?
On business trip.
"Husband's making money - wife's meeting honey?"
We'll come in, it's not Russian to talk here.
I told you, don't lie to your husband. lt's not Christian of you.
Ok, ok, but I really don't know where he lives and what he does.
Clear.
He'd been here for two days, but it's he who came to me.
I kicked him out, already. It's truth.
"If roses she loves - shall welcome the thorns."
Let me go!
I'll kill that bastard!
Your friends stopped by. Asked for you.
And I really don't know, who you are and where you live.
They wouldn't believe.
They have this boss, a round-faced guy,
likes rhymes very much.
Let's sing?
I'm no good at singing.
Yes. Got it.
So, he was "at the HQ"? "Just doing paperwork"?
Shisha first, then two guys disappeared.
Now he whaked the Mole. Just like that.
"He who ran away - lives another day".
Danya, you?
Has something happened?
Yes, it has, brother. You alone?
I'll come over and tell you about that.
He'll come over.
- What do you want? - Sell the rifle, gramps.
- A million. - Deal.
Show your money first.
- Dollars? - It's 1,200,000 in roubles.
Get the shells too.
Number five. To hunt ducks.
If you lie quietly, l'll let you go.
Weapons down, hands on your heads, everyone on the floor now!
Vitya, get up.
Don't shoot, brother, please don't shoot...
Come on, brother. Get up, it's over.
Forgive me... Don't shoot, please, don't kill...
Brother!
You are my brother.
You were like a father to me.
I used to call you Daddy! What's with you?
Remember, when I cut my leg while fishing, and you carried me home for ten kilometers?
Remember, when I got scared by a catfish, and you laughed? Remember?
You promised!
I keep my word.
Tell your guys: anyone touches my brother - I'll put them down.
Go.
That was him, he set you up.
I know.
I'm sorry, brother. - It's nothing.
Where's the cash?
In his briefcase... That jerk took everything...
You go home, to Mum's.
She is old now. We have to help.
Here, give her some money.
Get a job there.
In police.
They have that- uncle Kolya, in chief. Remember, the father's classmate?
They have a job.
Don't take the train. Hitch a ride out of the city.
Well, brother...
Goodbye.
God willing, we'll meet again.
You slut forgot what I told you? Huh? Forgot it?
I'll make your fucking boyfriend eat shit!
Where's he? Where's that asshole?
Right here.
There you are, tough guy.
So, brother, let's figure out who gets the broad.
You ain't my brother.
Pasha!
Let go, let me see!
There, there, Pasha, hold on just a bit...
Sveta!
Come on, shoot! Kill everyone!
You're so tough, you'd kill a man like it's nothing! "Paper-pusher"!
Sveta!
Go away. You, give me a towel.
Sveta, I came for you.
I have money. We can move away.
Sveta!
Go away, I told you.
Don't come here anymore.
I don't love you.
I brought you a disc, here.
You... since you have money, you said... leave some, for hospital. See how it is...
You've told before, city is power. Why is everyone here so weak?
City is an evil power. Strong people arrive, then become weak.
City takes away your power.
Now you are lost, too.
Here, take it.
Come on, take it. It's a lot. Live a little.
"If it's good for a Russian - it's death for a German."
Well, German, goodbye.
Thank you.
Guys, you seen Kat?
Look at McDonald's.
If you came for the money, get lost. It wasn't me.
What are you gonna do now?
Don't know.
May go to "The Pyramid", or "Planetariy". It's expensive though.
Penkin is singing today.
Day's just started, why make plans.
Hey Pinnoccio, split 60,000. Let's get some acid. My treat in the evening.
I'm leaving the city.
What do you want then?
To say goodbye.
Well bye.
Here. For Penkin.
Whaa?
To me? For keeping? - Okay, bye now.
You need something, maybe?
I'll go then?
...just got back from the Army.
Where've you been stationed?
Nowhere much. Been doing paperwork at the HQ.
Who do you want to be now?
Me? I don't know.
Truck driver.
Hey, can I turn the music on? Haven't listened to anything for a while.
Go ahead.
Lots of snow we havin'.
That's right.
So where are you headed?
To Moscow.
