    • Synopsis
    • Two young mobsters get hold of a case full of heroin belonging to a local well established and respected gangster (Nikita Mikhalkov). The young neophytes try to cheat him not quite understanding how tough a man he really is. A top-flight ensemble of popular Russian actors creates a collective portrait of the Russian Mafia of 1990's with their macho attitude, raspberry jackets, short haircuts and .finger thick golden neck chains and penchant to shoot one another with reckless abandon.
