Screening of the film "The Tailor from Torzhok"

The comedy by Yakov Protazanov will transport viewers to the years of the NEP, where a random bond sets off a chase for luck. The story of tailor Petya Petelkin combines satire, adventurous rhythm, and the plasticity of silent cinema. The eccentric comedy by Yakov Protazanov from 1925 unfolds in a small provincial town during the NEP era. The film's hero, Petya Petelkin, a worker in a sewing workshop, accidentally finds himself connected to a winning bond. This discovery triggers a chain of misunderstandings, chases, and adventures, where each participant strives to catch luck, and the everyday story quickly gains the tempo of a nearly circus-like prank. The screening is dedicated to the 120th anniversary of Vera Maretskaya's birth. On our website, we tell about free events in Moscow.
