The best Russian dramas of recent decades are designed to make you empathize with what is happening on the screen. I must say that they are doing a great job with this task. Of course, most will prefer to go to the cinema to see a comedy, but a good drama will bring a lot of positive emotions. Plus, it will make you think.

Without exaggeration, we can say that our drama films are the best, if not in the whole world, then in the post-Soviet space for sure. They are in demand and popular as well as comedies.

Duhless

Perhaps the best drama of 2012 is "Duhless" - the long-awaited adaptation of the scandalous book of the same name by Sergei Minaev. In the center of the plot is the story of the rise and fall of the top manager of a large corporation, a life-burner, a cynic and a womanizer Maxim. His life goes in a circle: work - fashionable clubs - new girls - work. It moves quickly and thoughtlessly, until Max's meeting with a new girl makes him look at himself differently.

Voroshilov Rifleman

This is the best drama at the turn of the 2000s. A piercing story of hopelessness that in the new Russia, now the one who has more power and more is always right and above the law.of money. The story that the principle of equality is no more. The story is that if there is no one else to protect us, we must do it ourselves. This is exactly what the former front-line soldier does when his only granddaughter is humiliated by a group of we althy majors. Having failed to achieve justice from the law and seeing the inability of the district police officer to help punish criminals, he takes a gun and does it himself.

Burnt by the Sun

This is the best drama that won worldwide acclaim and an Oscar. All the action in the film takes one long hot day in 1937, when the former fiance of his daughter arrives at the dacha of the eminent military man, who is close to Stalin himself. Everyone is glad for an unexpected meeting, conversations over tea and memories of a former life begin. Gradually, the owner of the cottage understands that the arrival of a guest has a specific purpose. And this is his arrest. The famous military man, the hero of the civil war, devoted to the last Soviet power, cannot believe that they can do this to him. He considers all this a stupid mistake and thinks that everything can be solved with one of his calls. So during the years of Stalinist repressions, many people thought that they were irreplaceable, that their services to the authorities and devotion to it would protect them from arrest.

Bastards

And, finally, the best drama with the participation of children is the scandalous film "Bastards". A brutal picture of a brutal wartime. According to the story, during the war with Nazi Germany, juvenile delinquents sentenced to death for violating Soviet laws form an active sabotage group to throw at the enemy. Thus, the Soviet government givesan opportunity for suicide bombers to atone for their guilt before the Motherland. Who is the very bastard, in the course of the film, the viewer himself will have to decide. Either these are juvenile criminals with unchildlike manners, or this is a state that cold-bloodedly sends, although criminals, but still children, to death.

In a word, almost all Russian dramas are the best films of our film industry!
