Yuri Bykov : 2013
Майор
On a cold winter's day Sergey Sobolev, a major at the local police office, is driving to the hospital where his wife is about to give birth to their child. High from happiness, he's driving too fast and runs down a boy on a passage walk who dies. Now the major has only two options: go to prison or conceal the crime. Sobolev decides to compromise with his conscience, and he calls on a colleague to help him out. But the case turns out to be messy and he understands that this choice resulted in many people's deaths. He finally changes his mind and tries to make up for his deed, but now he has to oppose the system and it's already too late. All the characters in this story have to choose: to cross or not to cross the line, when the price for your choice is life – yours and of the ones you love. Yuri Bykov's second feature premiered at Semaine de la Critique du Festival de Cannes 2013.
