The Russian TV series Polyot (The Flight) was included in the program of the international Seriencamp festival, the first and largest festival of TV shows in Germany (starting November 5, it is being held online for the first time).
Polyot was made by 1-2-3 Production (part of Gazprom Media) and produced by Valery Fyodorovich and Evgeny Nikishov. It was included in the Best around the World program, becoming the only Russian project among the 50 series presented in Munich.
Filmed by Pyotr Todorovsky Jr., it stars Nikita Efremov, Oksana Akinshina, Pavel Tabakov, Mikhail Efremov, Yulia Khlynina and Evgeniya Dobrovolskaya in a story about a group of construction company employees who narrowly escape death and then start challenging everything that prevents them from feeling alive.
The series seems to be taking over the world, starting in Eastern Europe: in September, Polyot won The Best TV Series award at the Serial Killer festival in the Czech Republic and now it is moving west. In November, after appearing at the German festival, Polyot will be shown in the United Kingdom as part of Content London, the largest international content conference, a place where the main TV trends of our day are shaped every year.
In Russia, Polyot will premiere on TNT and the PREMIER video platform.
