Directed by Valery Todorovsky (“Hipsters”, television series “The Thaw”, “The Geographer Drank His Globe Away”, “Ottepel”) and from Producers, Valery Todorovsky Production Company and Marmot Film Studio, “THE BOLSHOI” is a coming-of-age story about the rise of a Yulka Olshanskaya (real life ballerina, Margarita Simonova), a young, provincial, and talented ballerina fulfilling her lifelong dream of performing on the competitive stage of Russia’s renowned Bolshoi Theatre.
In order for Yulka to achieve her dream of dancing ballet on the Bolshoi Theatre’s stage, she faces daily struggles while making complex choices, attempting to balance the life of a dedicated ballerina with the life of a normal, everyday girl.
Will she choose to follow through with her dream – a life completely dedicated to ballet? Or one of real-life without her passion yet what she holds most dear – her family, friendships, and a first love?
“THE BOLSHOI” was successfully negotiated in U.S. by the official international distributor of the film, Central Partner Sales House, in collaboration with TriCoast Entertainment.
With financial support from Cinema Fund and Television Channel RUSSIA One, “THE BOLSHOI” has been a box office success since its premiere in Russia and Baltic States, accumulating over one million admissions from both these territories. “THE BOLSHOI” has also had a limited theatrical release in Germany, Austria, Israel, and will be released theatrically in Poland, Japan, and Spain.
Todorovsky’s “BOLSHOI” has been raved about since its release in Russia during May 2017.
“The exploration of complex themes and issues, such as the struggle of dementia, is subtle and powerful. These scenes are humorous; yet touchingly sad; anyone who has a family member suffering from this cruel condition will recognize the authenticity of these scenes. Frendlich captures her character’s suffering brilliantly; her portrayal could have been taken from a real-life aged care facility and edited straight into the film.” – Nicholas Makymow, Screen-Space.
With the screenplay written by Anastasia Palchikova on the motives of the adapted synopsis by Ilya Tilkin and Valery Todorovsky, “THE BOLSHOI” is a film about the obstacles of career paths, taking second chances, and achieving your dreams. Yulka’s character portrays that with drive, hard work, and passion, no difficulties or mistakes can stand in the way of achieving your dreams and becoming who you really are.
THE BOLSHOI” has a fantastic cast, including ballerina, Margarita Simonova stealing the show as the lead of Yulka. Alongside is the often-featured award-winning star of Russian films, Alisa Freyndlikh, Aleksandr Domogarov (musical: Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde), Anna Isaeva (Kremlin Ballet Theatre: Swan Lake, Arabian Nights), Valentina Telishkina, and dancer, choreographer, and art director, Nicolas Le Riche.
“THE BOLSHOI” is now available today on extended VOD platforms: iTunes, FlixFling, Hoopla, GooglePlay, Microsoft Xbox, Sony Playstation, Fandango, Vudu, In Demand, Dish, Vimeo On Direct and Direct TV.
