Sculptural monuments of Moscow - the history of their creation and destruction ...

The intrigues and anecdotes around the bronze and granite giants.

And a surprising flair Muscovites, who could always distinguish a "monumental propaganda" of the art ...

Insomnia and extreme nervous excitement he was persecuted for the past three years, and it sometimes seemed that he had died long ago, and he walks, speaks, acts before Soviet writers and workers, writes novels and articles, was not he but someone else, a stranger, an outsider.

Taking the night ten "Nembutal" packages Fadeyev did not find the strength to get up for breakfast and asked for him to dinner.

By one o'clock.

Time passed unbearably slow.

Again trying to doze off - and again to no avail.

We have before us a list of the world's tennis stars of the first magnitude.

However, why it happened that way in the Russian women's tennis?

The term emigration in the explanatory dictionary, we find the following explanation - from the Latin emigro - evicted, leaving the citizens of his country to another country for permanent residence, or a more or less long-term political, economic and other reasons.

The emigrants and emigration have been and probably always will be an integral part of any political regime, the regime of government.

This process shows the interpenetration of ethnic groups, cultures, traditions, problems, which obviously can not be resolved, being permanently confined to one land, the country, one city and way.

Naturally, the vast space once the Russian Empire and then the Soviet Union, and now the Russian Federation, numerous peoples inhabiting these spaces and political storms that raged in these spaces in the twentieth century, have given many reasons to talk about such a concept as the Russian emigration.

Moreover, in a global context.

The film "Adrift" is not trying to understand and explain the origins and consequences of Russian emigration as a whole.

We just show the lives of some Russian emigres living in a small town in Florida.
