Plot synopsis
Biography of the most famous Russian singer of the 20th century. The story of an artist who left Russia in 1919 and returned to the USSR in 1943 in the midst of World War II. Vertinsky lived, sang and was popular in Constantinople, Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Harbin, Shanghai and Moscow. He was loved by beautiful women, royals and thieves applauded him. He was a bohemian, light and cheerful. However, this film is primarily about his kindness. About his ability not to judge, to sympathize with anyone. And thanks to this, fate gave him immense success and late family happiness. "Vertinsky" is the story of how a songbird, an artist, a frivolous creature, can go through life arousing jealousy and respect.
