Ostrov is a penetrating drama of sublimation of the soul: the monk Anatoly, once a poor-spirited youth whom fascists made shoot his fellow to save his own life, acquires a gift to heal people. Two parsons, actually Anatoly’s two only friends (brilliantly played by Viktor Sukhorukov and Dmitri Dyuzhev) by the end of the story realize he succeeded in healing them, too. el Lungin was born in Moscow on July 12, 1949. His mother, Liliana Lungina, is famous for her brilliant Russian translations of Astrid Lindgren’s books. His father, Semyon Lungin, a well-known script-writer, wrote scenarios (with his co-author Ilya Nusinov) for such popular movies as Agoniya (Agony, 1981), Vnimanie, cherepakha! (Attention, Turtle! 1970), Dobro pozhalovat (Welcome, or No Trespassing, 1964), and others. In 1971 Pavel Lungin graduated from the Applied Linguistics Department of the Moscow State University and in 1980 from the Higher Scenario Courses, the workshop of Georgi Daneliya and Mikhail L’vovsky. Lungin made his debut in filming as a script-writer, with the film Vsyo Delo V Brate (It’s all about the brother) in 1976. Later he wrote scenarios for Konets Imperatora Taygi (The End of Taiga’s Emperor, 1978) and Nepobedimyy (The unconquerable, 1983).
