Sex Comedy from Russia!
Sex. Drugs. Rock and Roll.
Original
Russian Title: NIKO NE ZNAET PRO SEKS [Nobody Knows About Sex]
director: Alexei Gordeev [Aleksey Gordeev]
starring: Nikolai Machulsky · Maria Gonchar · Kirill Konakhin · Aurora
· Maxim Konovalov
Yegor
is a boy who lives with his grandfather in a rural Russian province.
He is beginning to experience growing sexual impulses but is frustrated
by lack of information offered by his bumpkin granddad. One day, their
quiet homestead in the woods is 'invaded' by Moscow city folk shooting
an episode of a television program called Nobody Knows About Sex.
The host of the series is Angelina, the perky, beautiful yet bitchy
Queen of Reality TV, known mostly for her [dildo shaped] pink microphone.
She and her crew are trampling through the remote countryside for an
expose on Bigfoot and his sex life. Instead, they find Yegor and his
grandfather. Of course, Yegor is completely smitten with Angelina and
after the television crew leaves, he decides to visit his cousin Kesha
in Moscow where he hopes to find, court and marrying the TV lady. That
is merely beginning of his unexpected sexual adventures because cousin
Kesha turns out to be a 'Westernized' teenager who introduces Yegor
to marijuana, porn and the pursuit of nookie.
The
immediate attraction here is a Russian Sex Comedy. And - as such
- it's something of a rarity. Russian is not known for cinema humor,
especially the Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll sort of thing. Similar
to Korea's SEX
IS ZERO or Israel's LEMON
POPSICLE, here is a telling example of taboo humor inside a
repressed culture.
A Russian film with
optional English subtitles; widescreen format (16:9), totally uncut
version
at 100 minutes, encoded for ALL REGION NTSC, playable on any American
machine
