Lenfilm's most recent major production spins a kind of historical fantasy based on real incidents that's full of ominous implications for today. One night, a patrol rushes into the chambers of the Russian prince Pavel, son of the Empress Catherine; the Empress has died, and Pavel is to be anointed the new Tsar. Thought to be feeble-minded at best and crazy at worst, Pavel soon lives up to his enemies' fears: he dismisses long-serving courtiers, demands that peasants only work three days a week, and declares that state officials should start their days at 5 am. Soon, it seems that everyone who can is trying to hatch some kind of plot against him - including his own sons. Sumptuously designed, POOR POOR PAVEL constrasts the imperial splendor of the court with the sordid atmosphere of conspiracies and backstabbing that comes to define these characters' lives.

Rublyovka is a symbol of success, prosperity, wealth, complacency and elitism. This is the world of the richest men and chic women, the most expensive land and the most luxurious mansions, exquisite cars and exclusive outfits. But "Russian Beverly Hills" is only one side of life. There is another - filled with human dramas, difficult life, tense relationships. No wonder they say: "Big money is big problems". Big money is a feeling of anxiety, restless nights, the inevitable envious and selfish women. Big money is expensive toys, which often turn out to be people themselves.
