The plot of the film unfolds in the seventies of the XXI century. Civilization is destroyed by a nuclear war. A contaminated atmosphere gradually kills the remnants of humanity. The surviving city united survivors, but people have to fight for their lives. Concluded in the closed bunker the authorities arrange brutal dance tournaments.
Kostya, a simple guy from the street, caught during the police clouds, becomes a member of the tournament. Getting to other applicants for victory, he falls in love with the Anya - daughter of the representative of the local elite, voluntarily participating in the death show.
Agnia Ditkovskite got the role of Zebra - the mentor of the participants traveling to the deadly dance tournament. .
"I play costa, the main character," says Ivan Zhvakin. - This is a simple guy from the street, which we call the "City Ninja". At the same time he is a real hero. Kostya fights for his life, seeks to get out of the bottom, and the confluence of circumstances leads him to the girl Anya, in which he falls in love. Anya is playing Lucheria Ilyashenko. With her, we got acquainted directly on the set and quickly found a common language. We were very comfortable to work: we supported each other and laid out at the maximum. "
"Anya is very different from all my former roles. I got the role of insidious seductive seductors, and for me this role is very interesting and important. My heroine is an introvert, a maximalist with a strong character and the belief that sometimes it goes sideways. I did not have to break myself, because in my life I am much more like an Anya than on the fatal heart. Improving her, I tried to keep the face of femininity and character, "says Lucheria Ilyashenko, famous for the roles in the series" Sweet Life "and" Treason ".
The shooting of the film "Dancing to death" was held on the streets of Moscow, which then with the help of computer graphics will be turned into a city destroyed by a nuclear war and cataclysms. .
The role of the mention of dancers going to the death tournament, performed Agnia Ditkovskite. Denis Swedov (TV series "Method", "Major") got a negative character - champion of one of the previous dance tournaments.
One of the key roles in the film is played dancing. Igor Rudnik was engaged in the formulation of spectacular numbers - choreographer on popular Russian dance TV projects. And Ivan Zhwakin, Lucierier Ilyashenko and other actors had to be pretty accelerated and spend quite a long time on the dance floor. "I have done the dances for many years, so I decided that this is my story. But, having come to the rehearsal dance fights in the film, I saw there such styles that never practiced in life, "Ivan admits. - Modern underground, including cramps and Dabstep, where completely different muscle groups are involved than in the classics. Of course, with my school it was easier to learn similar styles. But everything happened very rapidly - it was necessary to grab literally on the fly. "
However, one dance training was not limited to: the actor had to learn from the fulfillment of complex combat scenes.
Artists of the main roles Ivan Zhwakina and Luchery Ilyashenko before filming in the film had to spend quite a long time in dance classes in order to be convincing in choreographic scenes. .
"From a technical point of view, this is a completely new experience for me," Jumakin continues. - Almost all the tricks in the film I performed myself. It's chase, and the real parkur on the roofs, and very spectacular fights. " Ditkovskite also had to get acquainted with martial art, because in the plot of her heroine owns oriental martial arts and, if necessary, takes over the weapon. As a result, Agnia was trained to shoot a gun from a pistol and special training for power receivers from different combat systems - combat sambo, judo and aikido.
The shooting was held against the background of the Moscow-City complex, in the building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences, in the ancient power plants and the DominionTower business center. And with the help of computer graphics, all this will turn into futuristic buildings and views of the city destroyed by the apocalypse.
