The film “Andrey Konchalovsky’s Cinema Odyssey” is a tribute to the creative path of one of our outstanding contemporaries, Andrey Konchalovsky, spanning from his debut film, “The Boy and the Dove”, which was immediately invited to the Venice International Film Festival, to the present day. The documentary features notable figures who starred in the master’s films, from Sergei Shakurov to Tom Holtz, from Inna Churikova to Irina Kupchenko. Dividing his work into ‘periods’ — classical, American, and the perestroika era — Konchalovsky, with the help of the cinema, embarks on a cinematic journey akin to Odysseus, ultimately returning to his own ‘Penelope’: Moscow.
