Our regular selection includes not only new releases from Russia and Hollywood, but also exciting series from Türkiye and South Korea.
We hope you have a pleasant journey through the cinema universes this and next winter weekends.
“First number”
Premiere date: December 1
As media representatives, we could not ignore the “First Number” series, which we mentioned in detail before. We know one thing: The story is based on true events, but it won’t just be of interest to people in the media industry.
After Western advertisers left the Russian market, fashion magazines began to close en masse. And so, the once popular writer Konstantin Inozemtsev is offered the position of editor-in-chief of one of these publications, and he decides to rebrand, completely changing the concept. Not all of his colleagues are happy with his appointment, but he won’t give up. The main role was played by Evgeny Tsyganov. The series also featured Nadezhda Mikhalkova, Ida Galich, Sasha Bortich, Ravshana Kurkova, Pavel Derevyanko, Igor Vernik and other stars.
“Star Wars: Support Team”

Four children get lost and travel to a galaxy far, far away in hopes of returning home. The story focuses on powerful Jod Na Nayvud (played by Jude Law), who gets out of unusual situations thanks to his intelligence and charm.
“Lamp Shop”
Premiere date: December 5
For lovers of mysticism with horror elements, we recommend watching the South Korean mini-series “Lamp Shop” with Park Bo Young and Joo Ji Hoon. The eight-episode series is based on Kanu Fulla’s webtoon of the same name. The plot tells the story of a strange shop at the end of a dark alley, where there are always many visitors. But the nuance here is that they are all already dead.
