Plot synopsis
The example of a person on the screen for a person in front of the screen can be a medicine as well as an attractive poison. It is difficult to overestimate the influence of «the most important type of all types of art» on masses. Following the heroes of the favorite movies viewers moved off to the virgin lands as Ivan Brovkin, easily broke the moral barriers («Flights in Dreams and in Reality»), became physics («Nine Days of One Year») and joined the rows of girls, the heroines of the film «Intergirls». The task of the cycle is to observe the evolution of a movie hero whose made-up image indicates about the generated him time better than any document... The 1st film tells about the transformation of a Soviet-Russian cinema hero from the 20s to the 90s. The 2nd film is the survey of current problematics of a movie hero.
