Бывший швейцар Франтишек Абель в своей маленькой квартирке, которую он делит с внуком Павлом, собирает по пятницам друзей — одиноких стариков, живущих в доме для престарелых. Их встречи полны воспоминаний, а реальная жизнь проходит в мире грёз и фантазий. Павлу старики кажутся странными, едва ли не сумасшедшими; он влюблён и собирается жениться и, поскольку квартира тесна для троих, предлагает деду переселиться в тот же дом для престарелых, где, как ему кажется, старики чувствуют себя прекрасно

Бег
Aleksandr Alov, Vladimir Naumov
Aleksey Batalov, Ludmila Savelyeva
The film is about a group of people who in other times wouldn't have anything in common, some of them innocent bystanders, some moral criminals. But nothing is straightforward and simple. From Russia "the run" continues to Constantinople, to Paris, back to Russia. Some of them have understood that they can't live outside Russia and go back maybe to be happy, maybe not, some go back to face sure death for their crimes, some don't go back and know that are going to miss homeland forever, some are comfortably well off (are they?) in exile. Sentimental without syrup, tragic and comical at the same time.
