Deja Vu
A boy Maxim, lesbian-teenager Nika, young rap-star LilGri and businessman Oleg are seating in a big room and telling life stories connected together by the same deja vu effect - cry of the "rooks". That moment is quite familiar to all of them, like they've already seen it before. The host of the meeting - wealthy old man Konstantin - knows the reason for those feelings and wants to use it to help them all.

Honorable Mention
Artur was born in 1992 in Naberezhniye Chelny city. Moved to Saint-Petersburg to study for a pilot, when he was 17 years old. Currently he is a captain of Boeing 737NG. During free time he writes books and music. In 2020 graduated "A.Mitta Film School" and made his first short movie "Deja Vu», now it’s been showing on festivals around the world. Then in collaboration with producer and director Andrey Lisyanskiy shot next short-movie «Bluff». Now he works on a full-length film.
The idea of that film - basically my book, which I started to write, but later I decided to make a short film about it. It's a social movie: stories shown in that movie are very familiar for each human, all of us had something similar in our life, or saw that. And all of us always had to choose what to do. Sometimes before act, that can influence our life we can notice signs of destiny, but we don't pay attention to that for different reasons, e.g. because of the circumstances. Deep and saturated by meanings movie will make you think about the life itself, signs of destiny and choices we have to make.
