According to the director of the comedy “There is another main character in this movie. This is Ufa itself. Unusual, bright, with a difficult and sometimes capricious character, but always giving everyone a chance to find their love, their happiness. And this movie is a declaration of love for our native city. The film crew had been looking for locations for a long time, having traveled all over Ufa. The filming process was already underway, and the team continued to find suitable locations. In the end, the movie included about 30-35 locations, which turned out to be three times less than originally planned.
Mountain village
In movie
Scene where We see a beautiful small village nestled among majestic mountains. Behind the scenes, the hero discusses the eternal theme - what is happiness? As his grandmother used to say: "Happiness is when you know what will happen to you tomorrow".
Timing: 00:00:40
Real
Scene was shot in the picturesque village of Tash-Asty. The mountain landscape here plays a symbolic role - the name of the protagonist, Ural, echoes the rock Uklikaya, which is the beginning of the Ural mountain range. This associative series is important. In addition, according to the director, it was important to emphasize the contrast between the village and the city. The protagonist left the small aul with its cramped spaces and found himself in a huge city with wide roads, endless traffic and fast cars.
Antique shop
In movie
Scene where Ural goes in search of his beloved grandmother's ring, which he gave to his beloved. Unfortunately, love can be very cruel. The bride has sold his ring, and now the hero will face a long search for the family heirloom.
Timing: 00:12:02
Real
Scene was shot in a real antique salon "Venice" in the center of Ufa. The salon is located on a busy street in a neat yellow building. A massive sign "Venice" is attached right above the entrance to the salon, attracting the attention of passers-by with its unique vintage style. You can also visit this salon, but hopefully with a more joyful occasion than our hero.
Ufa
Station
In movie
Scene where Ural, the happy hero, returns from the army. Without leaving the spacious, sunny train station, he calls his beloved and proposes to meet at a restaurant to celebrate his "demob". The smile does not leave his face and the whole frame is permeated with happiness and anticipation of the meeting.
Timing: 00:06:16
Real
Scene was shot at the Railway Station of the city of Ufa. The building combines elements of modern architecture and Soviet style, with its strict lines and practicality. The film crew liked the spacious station with high ceilings and large windows that fill the halls with natural light. Inside there are spacious waiting rooms with train schedules on electronic boards and cash windows along the walls. All this we can see in the frame.
