He is only 34 years old, but he almost reached the top of domestic cinema. His three works were included in the long list of the main film award of Russia “Golden Eagle” in five nominations. In addition, in his hometown, he created his own creative studio, which removes anything – from advertising and clips to a full meter. And he studied at Metallurg. He is Ivan Sosnin.
We talked with the director to understand how it happened at all. We discussed the Ural cinema, the most important things for building a career in the field, trends on Russian screens, its own path and history of the touching series “South” production of Norm Production about a boy who goes through the whole country in search of his father.
What Ivan told us – look at the cards. It will be useful to everyone – both those who dream of becoming a filmmaker, and those who want to start understanding what they saw, and those who just look.
❤️With love, Mash Room
