Unfading (2026)

A visually striking drama helmed by legendary filmmaker Marlen Khutsiev and completed after his passing, this film draws inspiration from real-life meetings between Anton Chekhov and Leo Tolstoy. Through intimate conversations, the two literary giants grapple with life’s deepest questions—life, death, faith, and immortality—revealing profoundly different worldviews that are nonetheless grounded in a shared cultural heritage and sustained by mutual respect. The film was completed in 2026 through the efforts of Marlen Khutsiev’s friends and colleagues.
