A new four-episode melodrama "The Copper Ring" is being filmed in Kyiv. The project is created by FILM.UA Group and TV channel "Ukraine".
This gasping and poignant story will tell about the fates of Vera and Roman who are in love. Because of intrigues, the lady and the young man will quarrel and split up, Roman will find himself in a wheelchair, and Vera will be out of touch with him... The main heroes will have to find out who is their friend and who is trying to destroy their life. Will Roman be able to move on his own? Will the heroes meet again? Will they keep their feelings?
“Our film is about powerful and real love, about the feeling that overcomes the years of separation or other people's intrigues. All the heroes of this story have to follow their own path: some will come through the hardest trials and become stronger, and others, on the contrary, will lose everything...”- says the director Aleksandr Budyonny.
The leading man – actor Dmitry Belyakin– told about his hero.
“My character Roman is a man with a core. He is trying to rearrange his life, despite fear and despair. You know, I had a friend who was bedridden for six months due to a spinal fracture. I visited him and saw what it feels like. Finally, he got back to his feet – it requires will, efforts, and a strong desire to live."
The role of Petr, a friend of the couple of Roman and Vera, a very controversial person, will be played by the actor Ruslan Kornekov: “I am comfortable in the role of Petr, I just love to play tough guys! There are so many things in him – both good and bad."
The film is also featuring the actors Aleksandrа Sizonenko, Yuliya Amelkina, Vlad Pisarenko, Tamara Morozova, Svetlana Zelbet and others.
