"Arrhythmia" by Boris Khlebnikov - a film that gives hope Automatic translate

KARLOVY VARY. Alexander Yatsenko received a prize at a festival in the Czech Republic for his role in Arrhythmia

One of the awards of the just concluded 52nd Karlovy Vary Film Festival (Mezinárodní filmový festival Karlovy Vary) went to the film Arrhythmia. The prize for the best male role, as well as at the XXVIII Kinotavr, was awarded to non-alternative mascot actor Boris Khlebnikov Alexander Yatsenko. Each film with him, according to the director, is Sasha in the proposed circumstances, it is interesting to talk about him, it is impossible to do without him.

On the screen - an ambulance doctor at a difficult moment in his life. The medical wife, who performs daily feats in the whirlpool of the emergency ward, (the role of Irina Gorbacheva) wants to part with him, the bosses too. The imperfect, often drinking, not having time to say the second half an unnecessary kind word, is categorically not capable of meanness. Ignores the new regulation, the “20 minute rule” if it can harm the patient. Rushing to the challenge, if it can be in place earlier than a specialized brigade and save a person. Refuses to follow the installation of a soulless boss: do not spend a minute extra time on the patient and only care that he does not die with emergency doctors. What will happen after is not so important.

In the work on the picture, the shooting of which took place within the walls of the Yaroslavl Clinical Emergency Hospital, the doctors working there were invaluable. First of all, a wonderful vertebro neurologist Dmitry Yurievich Moiseev, who developed the method of biomechanical massage. A unique diagnostician, he seeks to determine the root dysfunction, and hence the cause of the ailment, helping in the most difficult situations. A romantic who came into the profession under the impression of Efremov’s book “Razor Blade” and films about the war, in which the doctors did everything possible to save the wounded, was on the same wavelength with the Arrhythmia crew.

Hero Yatsenko honestly admits to his wife that he does not hope for career growth or an increase in wages, that he is unlikely to ever leave his job. And the actor himself refuses to perform speculative trash for the sake of spiritual and material comfort. Khlebnikov’s film is often compared to Zvyagintsev’s Dislike, which leaves no illusions about the light at the end of the tunnel. Arrhythmia gives such hope.
