FiLmS Full: Piter FM (2006)

Storyline:
Lyrical story about two young people, Masha and Maxim, who have to decide what to do.

This movie is the epitome of a modern Russian romance. I saw it while studying abroad in St. Petersburg. It really captures the feel of that great city, as well as having a very Russian take on love and friendship. It's a movie that probably wouldn't be good in translation, but if you can watch it in Russian, I highly recommend it. It's really fun to look for all your favorite spots in Piter as they show up in the film, and at the same time grow to love and understand Maxim and Masha as they deal with their emotional upheavals. As my friend Nadya said, by the end, they don't even necessarily have to be in love. Finding that human connection, that friendship, is all that's really necessary.
Masha is a radio DJ who works with Piter FM. She is about to get married. Maksim is an architect who is having to work as a handyman but has been offered a job as an architect in Germany. He is about to go to Germany. One day, as fate would have it, while crossing the road Masha drops her mobile phone and Maksim picks it up. With Masha and Maksim we take a trip into their funny and enchanting worlds. This movie makes you laugh and keeps you hooked until the very last minute, in an "Amelie"-like manner. This is Oksana Bychkova's first movie and make a note of this name. She is a director we must watch out for! Brilliant, Imaginative and Entertaining!
