SYNOPSIS



Scenes Of Bohemian Life
Scenes Of Bohemian Life is the ninth film of the director. However, it?s for the first time that he is using a classic plot as a base of his film. This plot is, probably, more known to the lovers of opera, rather than to the lovers of literature. Puccini?s La Bohème is loosely based on the novel by Henri Murger. Konstantin Seliverstov brings the action of his film from Paris of the 19th century to Saint Petersburg of the 21st century, at the same time keeping the French names of the main characters.
