A special screening of the movie "Russian Reactor" was held at the RUSSIA EXPO. Its author is the president of the All-Russian motorcycle club Alexander Zaldastanov (Surgeon). He personally presented the movie.

The picture is a heroic chronicle of the main events of Russia in the XX century. According to Alexander Zaldastanov, the movie is based on the bike show, which was held in Sevastopol. In it, high metaphysics was successfully wrapped in the rumble of motorcycle engines, the blaze of fire flashes, giant moving scenery, powerful heavy rock.

"The movie is dedicated to the 100-year history of Russia. The history of Night Wolves comes from the USSR, and we have special feelings for this era. For us, the USSR is the Motherland, which means the mother who loved and protected us, although sometimes punished us.... This is exactly what we could not realize then with our immature minds. When she was gone, there was an abyss. And then, clinging to its edge with our motorcycles, we saw our defiled state falling into this abyss, and great values disappearing along with it. And next, loud-sounding names and unfulfilled hopes drowned in the "blood on the asphalt". Then we saw how Russia, like a Phoenix bird, rises again from the ashes, giving hope for a long-awaited revival. This phenomenon is as mysterious as the "Russian Reactor" itself. According to the President of Russia, it is the heart of our people. It hums, emits enormous energy and pushes the country forward even in its blackest years. This is the reactor, which is in the title of the movie. Take "Russian Reactor" as a history lesson written by motorcycles," said Alexander Zaldastanov.

Also, the audience of "Russian Reactor" was greeted by Dmitry Rybalchenko, First Deputy Director General of the Russian Society "Knowledge".

"It is surprising and great that within the framework of the project Knowledge.Cinema such premieres as today take place. I would like to note that this will not be a single screening. In the future, "Russian Reactor" will be shown in universities, colleges and other educational institutions where there is an opportunity to watch movies. I expect that thousands of people all over the country will be able to get into the idea of the movie and learn something new about the last century of Russia. We must appreciate our history and regularly revisit it. Including in such action forms, which are understandable to the greatest number of viewers," said Dmitry Rybalchenko.

They will be accompanied by creative meetings with Alexander Zaldastanov - the audience will be able to learn the history of making the movie firsthand.
