Plot synopsis

The action takes place in sunny, groovy present day St.Petersburg and during the fierce defence of the city in 1942. Four friends, a student, a skinhead, a geeky gamer and a rapper make their cash looking for Nazi relics from WWII. Motivated by greed they are hip, cynical and have no respect for the past. During a dig they stumble upon a bombed out bunker full of valuable treasures but also something strange. Among the documents belonging to a Red Army officer they find a photograph of themselves. Trying to come to their senses they dive into a nearby lake and surface… to a spray of gunfire in 1942.

Commentaries and bibliography

Andrei Maliukov : We are from the Future (My iz budushchego, 2008), Greg DOLGOPOLOV, kinokultura.com, 2008

 

This rite-of-passage time travel drama was a box office hit with its fantastical recreation of the War from the perspective of today’s youth, a dynamic modern soundtrack, robust performances and a romance that blossoms under fire.
