Non-Silk Road

Silk Road Mountain Race is one of the most difficult multi-day cycling races, the route of which runs through the mountains of Kyrgyzstan: about two thousand kilometers at temperatures from +40 to -15 and with a total climb of 30 thousand meters. The extreme Silk Road attracts cyclists from all over the world, but not everyone manages to overcome it on full self-sufficiency. In 2023, two guys from Moscow, Maxim Lapchuk and Sasha Antipov, decided to test themselves and go on this journey. One of them had been preparing for it for three years, the other decided in a week, without going into details. In Peter Barabaki's film, they tell how it was, and invite the viewer to speculate with them on the question of how people come to realize a big dream — how much recklessness, heroism and risk there is in this, and in the end is it worth it.

Iverson

Iverson is the ultimate legacy of NBA legend Allen Iverson, who rose from a childhood of crushing poverty in Hampton, Virginia, to become an 11-time NBA All-Star and universally recognized icon of his sport. Off the court, his audacious rejection of conservative NBA convention and unapologetic embrace of hip hop culture sent shockwaves throughout the league and influenced an entire generation. Told largely in Iverson's own words, the film charts the career highs and lows of one of the most distinctive and accomplished figures the sport of basketball has ever seen.
