The matrix in Ukrainian. In the movie "The House" Word "Khvylovy Fires at the NKVD agent similar to Putin

Why? The authors with success five years ago showed the documentary "House" Word "-about the writing house in Kharkiv, where stars of Ukrainian literature and theater lived in the period 1928-1934: Mykola Khvylovy, Pavel Tychyna, Vladimir Sosyura, Ostap Cherry, Les Kurbas , Natalia Uzhviy. But then a wave of Stalin's repression swept away, and this generation of artists began to be called "shot revival.

" The creators of the documentary have offered an artistic version The company reminded the picture "Forbidden" (2019) of the poet-dysident Vasyl Stus: a mixture of Soviet stamps with postmodern techniques. In the light of the latter, the scene, where Khvylovy, as Neo, strikes in a dream from the ghost ghost, they dies and re-dies. , as Smith agent. Special spiciness adds a scene the similarity of Akimov with young Putin.

To the finals quite unexpectedly semantic Kcent painting moved from writers and their "House" - to the NKVD officer Menra, who skillfully drives the creators into a corner. The focus understood why it turned out. It is necessary to start this story from the event of five years ago: director Taras Tomenko and screenwriter Lyubov Yakimchuk made a good documentary "House of the Word", which took place in 2017.

There it was detailed that Ukrainian writers wanted to improve their living conditions and in 1927 created a construction cooperative - in order to build a joint apartment building in the then capital of the USSR - Kharkiv. According to their estimates, the money for him had to be paid for 15 years. It was the first series of Soviet Ukrainian Bohemia: Mykola Khvylovy, Pavel Tychyna, Vladimir Sosyura, Ostap Cherry. There was not enough money - the artists were rushing to Moscow.

There, at the personal order of Stalin, they were sailed. The Secretary General said to many: "Ukraine should increase its cultural level in Ukrainian. " The house was rebuilt and the cultural commune had fun. In addition to writers, artists and directors - the same founder of the legendary theater "Berezil" Les Kurbas and his leading actress Natalia Uzhvi, wife of Futurist Semenko, found a shelter - the same founder of the legendary theater "Berezil".

The picture has many details of creative and personal life: habits, hobbies, mistresses, disassembly with neighbors. However, the further, the more the house was filled with the NKVD knocks. The informal leader in the House "Word" was wave. He was annoyed by more tangible control of power, which did not prevent him from going abroad for some time. And the Western stars came here, like Bertold Brecht. The idyll ended when the Holodomor exploded: Kharkiv was reached by swollen peasants who were dying.

Khvylovy with a colleague went on a business trip to the village and horrified the realities of this "collectivization". The NKVD-is-is-to have completely blocked access to newspapers and magazines: it was impossible to write anything about this crime. Who raised the voice against buosses - arrested. The final is sad: Khvylovy gathered at home associates and shot himself. Those who were not destroyed were forced to repent.

This is so bright, but not too much in the movie is the story of the House "Word", which is still in the center of Kharkiv. However, the authors decided not to be limited to the document, but melted the information into a feature film (budget UAH 60 million). But there were many underwater stones here.

There were two stringed lines-about the real writer of Khvylovy (Vyacheslav Dovzhenko) and the national graph-Sexot of Vladimir Akimov, who was played by actor Dmitry Oliynyk, who is very reminiscent of young Putin: liquid hair, thin neck, wandering. Akimov is a graphoman mol, a knock, a plagiarator, a sexual rapist. He, dreaming of getting to the house, goes to the NKVD. He is given a gorgeous apartment, but in it - a switch: everyone to listen.

From that moment on, the authors have proposed a different version of the home compared to the documentary. As the curator Akimova admits the NKVD Mener officer (actor and director Yuri Lyonoky): "The House" The Architect "was immediately planned taking into account" wiret "to" paste "writers".

Is this conspiracy theory not bust? But how is the fact that Bohemia just decided to spontaneously pollute to the cooperative? Central switch and microphones in each phone: Isn't it too early on technology for the beginning of the thirties? Why this was not said in the documentary "The House of the Word", instead, there is a lot of reports of the knob in the spirit: "They closed, something is discussed behind the door.

" And to listen to and snail dozens of apartments (there were 66 in the house) will need a whole staff of NKVD staff and stenographers. For the sake of poets? Okay, any artistic fantasy has the right to exist. Even technically "cheated". However, the idea that the house was originally built as a trap, with special equipment, significantly changed the accents in the story, which we think, the authors did not plan.

The NKVD-Mener NKVD is thin but iron "wrapped in" a freedom-loving writer, using information from Akimov. The conflict between artists and power is growing. However, the filmmakers are too fond of the creation of the images and the system of evil, so they became a semantic center of the film. Our applause to Yuri is the only one in the role of a NKVD officer who oversees writers. It is impossible to ignore the hypnotic-deed, snake view of his great disgraceful eyes on the screen.

He leads every party of each creator carefully, but steadily. Decorates Kurbas, bothers Khvylovy. Mener's task for them to give new talented works, but "right" ideologically. He respects in his own way. He offers him hunting with a bath (although it is more like entertainment of Brezhnev's nomenclature), saying, "I am too - a frontline.

" How did the lonely manage to play the suppression of another's will so convincingly? And here it came: he is a well -known theater director who has set dozens of performances in different theaters of the capital! He was used to ordering, giving tasks, subjugating actors. And his manner, in fact, puts such a performance among the bohemia, where everyone is given their role. That is why the single character came out central in the movie, as the switch where all the wires flock.

Moreover, Khvylovy, of course, feels the "director" function of Mener and when he made an offer to hunt - begins in the rain to beat a chechitka in front of a "black funnel". Type: You wanted me to dance under your tune - Nate! Strong scene! Interestingly, for some reason, in Ukrainian cinema, the images of the NKVD-Shniks are often among the loose script and director material.

Evil obliges? Let us mention a similar role - ODPU officer performed by Alexander Kobzar in the first national blockbuster (not paid off, but collected a decent cashier) "guide" (2014). And here the NKVD-is, as a knife, clear, but the role shines and shimmers. Something in the character created by the lonely glitter Mephistophel. But the positive characters of the film were less fortunate: they fell many stamps. Wave - too holistic nature.

Without any disadvantage, if you do not think that it smokes, "chewing" cigarettes, and drinks in liters (in the "house" are practically done, so it seems like an experiment of British scientists to study the effects of bad habits on the human body). He is constantly in conflict with his wife and always glad Padchrytsi, who appreciates and loves him.

And where it was about his innocent pajage: the writer brought good imported things from abroad, dressed his family, gave others-what is it in the document? You can't be a superhero around the clock! But the character Vyacheslav Dovzhenko ("Cyborgs") is enough time. And in the group of his associates it is difficult to even feel the characters: they are like a mass in the lead. Writers arranged creative evenings in the style of revolutionary cabaret.

There you can call the reading of futuristic poems by the poet Mikhail Semenko (actor Gennady Popenko). But in general, it also looked a little heated, like an operetta on the subject of Soviet Bohemia. Actions often occur in one of the main locations of the movie-restaurant-dining. Borsch, porridge, wines, vodka-just a scream-scatter and Soviet paradise. But for comfort you have to pay: the image of sexota Akimov begins to literally pursue a wave.

And then postmodernism has already played: the wave shoots at a knock from a gun, he falls, but resurrects elsewhere: in the closet, in the hallway, in the mirror. The episode is one in one of the "matrix" when neither kills Smith's agent many times. And given the similarity of Akimov with young Putin - it looks funny and ominous. It is clear that the prose was dreamed.

Akimova also overtakes the fate, but this finale in the picture is not even operetta, and the opera will not spoil: go to the movies. At the exit, we have the evil in the face of the anti -hero Yuri of the lonely turned out to be the most striking and unforgettable. The movie was not about the "Word House", as in the documentary version of history, but about a well -organized, devilish suppression system.
