The series "The Son of My Father" - about two neurosurgeons Boris and Gleb, who have become someone else's. It is believable to play neurosurgeons with actors Sergey Astakhov and Vladimir Zherebtsov helped real doctors. The shooting of the series was not held in pavilions, but in operating current Moscow hospitals. Doctors taught actors how to keep scalpel and other tools.

The main roles of the two brothers were a big casting. Daniel Strakhov, Pavel Makov, was tried to the role of Boris, but in the end they chose Sergey Astakhov, together with which the director of the project Stanislav Dreov had already worked before. Who to call for the role of Gleb from the actors of the young generation, he did not know until the latter. As a result, at some point simply turned on the TV and began to watch some of the actors are busy in modern serials. So I saw Vladimir Zherebtsov and invited him to his very sterile cinema. Boris's mother and Gleb played actress Tamara Akulov.
Vladimir Zherebtsov in the role of the younger brother Gleb
"The relationship of Boris and Gleb looks like the history of Mozart and Salieri, only our heroes are neurosurgeons," says the director Stanislav Dreov. - The older brother Boris success is given with great difficulty. But the younger, Gleb, is a doctor from God, who in his hands everything arms. And the eldest hates him quietly. Trying to privatize the Hospital of the Father while he lies in a coma, and remove the brother away from his way. Around this and built plot. "
Work on the film lasted almost a year. The shooting was carried out in Albania, Abkhazia and Moscow region Kolomna. "Sergey Astakhov and fought in the frame, and shot from the gun," the director continues. - With all the equipment, we rose to the mountains in Albania. On the one hand, the abyss, on the other - the mountain, and we climb the cargo. It was something incredible. The cars were discharged into the cliffs, the actors ran around the edge. Of course, cascaders helped us with the risque moments. "
