- Synopsis
- After a long absence, ageing theatre director Daniil Sorin is invited to Moscow to resurrect his legendary staging of Anton Chekhov’s ‘The Cherry Orchard’. He has doubts; who needs his traditional, subtle staging of the classic play nowadays? But the actors convince him otherwise and he agrees. Everything goes well, every actress wants to play the leading part, and an old love is rekindled… Until the accumulation of strange events, his discovery of a grave stone bearing his own name, undertakers’ flyers lying around the theatre, a call from an Italian friend who’s seen his obituary, make him realize that the actors who invited him have a very different and terrifying plan for ensuring the success of the play.
