SYNOPSIS

Volga-Volga is a remake of the cult Soviet comedy musical of the late 1930s directed by Grigory Aleksandrov. This story depicts a gifted village girl. Local bureaucrats try to hinder her going to Moscow for a singing competition, but she goes to the capital with success. The lead was played by Liubov Orlova - the Russian Marlene Dietrich. This is the strangest remake in the history of cinema as the 1930s version has been preserved completely, with the exception of the leading actress and soundtrack. In this new version the main character is played brilliantly by the well-known Russian artist Vladislav Mamyshev-Monroe, which gives the film an absolutely new metaphysical feel to the production.
