Deeper!

In a city where cultural prestige teeters on the edge of economic desperation, a once‑celebrated stage director finds himself adrift. Roman Petrovich—a perfectionist whose life has revolved around the meticulous study of character—misses a critical deadline, loses his post at the nation’s flagship theater, and confronts a bleak reality of unpaid bills and dwindling prospects. When a friend suggests a temporary gig that sits far outside the gilded corridors of high art, Roman hesitates, yet the lure of any steady income proves irresistible.

Stepping into the dimly lit world of an underground film studio, Roman meets two performers whose raw talent hints at untapped narrative potential. Lera and Timur become his subjects, and he approaches each shoot with the same rigor he once reserved for Shakespearean tragedy. The clash of his theatrical discipline with the unapologetically explicit medium creates a tone that is at once satirical, introspective, and oddly reverent. By treating the adult set as a laboratory for psychological depth, he begins to blur the line between performance and intimacy, hinting at a new, unconventional genre that challenges both the participants and the audience.

Word of his unconventional approach begins to ripple beyond the studio’s shadowed walls, catching the ear of cultural gatekeepers and media personalities. A beleaguered television host, Vladimir, struggles to reclaim his credibility, while the nation’s highest office watches the shifting tides of public taste. The stage is set for a collision between the world of avant‑garde theater and the uncharted realm of adult cinema, promising a dialogue that could reshape how art is defined and who gets to define it.
