Photos have appeared of what the heroes of “Brother 2” would have looked like in modern Moscow, where the film was filmed. Alexey Balabanov took photographs on Red Square, in Kitai Gorod, in Zaryadye, near the high-rise building on Kotelnicheskaya, where Saltykova lived. lived: February 26, 2024 Posting in CHAT: Russia We show what Danila Bagrov would look like on the streets of modern Moscow. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) On February 25, one of the most scandalous and iconic directors of our time, Alexey Balabanov, celebrated his 65th birthday. He was hated as much as he was loved. And its sequel “Brother” became a new Russian myth with a national hero in the person of Danila Bagrov. In memory of the director, MSK1.RU correspondent Ekaterina Fadeeva walked through the locations of “Balabanov” in Moscow and transferred there the characters of the film “Brother-2” (18+) Does anyone even know how Danila Bagrov ended up in Moscow? He could get there either with the truck driver he met in the first Brother, or by plane, or by train. Let's assume that Danila, like his brother Victor, left the Leningradsky railway station building due to “significant hallucinations.” Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) In “Brother 2” Bagrov appears on the 25th frame - he passes through the film crew, who are recording how the gangster, against the backdrop of a black Hummer and the Ostankino Tower, says that he is not Byron, he is different. Danila goes to the television center, becomes the hero of the TV-6 channel and meets Irina Saltykova. It seems that this could be the shortest story about the conquest of Moscow.

Alexey Balabanov (18+) A little later, Danila and his friends find themselves in a bathhouse (where would we be without this?). In addition, they go to one of the oldest steam rooms in the capital - “Sanduny”. They are located a 20-minute walk from the Kremlin. In the early 90s, the baths were more of a conference room for bandits, so there was no better place for the heroes of “Brother” to meet. Bagrov finds himself in one of the most luxurious halls of “Sanduna” - with a 9th century swimming pool and ancient sculptures. It is unlikely that Bagrov will be surprised now that black Mercedes are constantly rushing around these baths. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva / MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) In the meantime, Danila was working on a new plan to restore justice, his older brother Victor arrived at the Leningradsky station. To the taxi driver’s question from the station “Where are we going?” Somewhere in the air he answers: “To Moscow.” This can be considered the best spell, because after this he immediately finds himself in the Zaryadye area. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) Victor confidently follows the main tourist route and arrives at Red Square. More cautious than curious, he looks around and slows down at the mausoleum. But he doesn’t need to go there, his goal is the Historical Museum. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) Inside, in one of the back rooms, Danila and a friend are sitting and disassembling weapons. And if in the film Victor easily walked to the building, now he could only touch the fence blocking the entrance to the museum.

Alexey Balabanov (18+) Having reunited with his brother, Danila does not forget about his beloved - Irina Saltykova, a pop star of the 90s. She lived in a high-rise building on Kotelnicheskaya, where Bagrov Jr. often visited. Now their romance would look like this - somewhere in the middle of the snow. The romantic area in front of the entrance with a bench now resembles a snow storage area. Such harsh Moscow love. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) One day Danila comes to Saltykova with his brother. Crime bosses in leather jackets are already waiting for them at the entrance. Bagrov Jr. calmly deals with them and begins to evade pursuit. Source: Ekaterina Fadeeva/MSK1.RU, still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+) They turn into the winding and steep streets of Kitay-Gorod. It wasn’t just the heroes of “Brother” who roared through them. And now even an ordinary taxi or a Russian postal car gives you gas to drive uphill and make a turn. Source: still from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir. Alexey Balabanov (18+), Ekaterina Fadeeva / MSK1.RU The brothers decide to walk through the empty Salt Yards. They look like a real labyrinth with many arches. Here, according to the plot of the film, Victor discovers a prehistoric machine gun. Source: frame from the film “Brother-2” (2000), dir.

Alexey Balabanov (18+), Ekaterina Fadeeva / MSK1.RU This is where the brothers’ journey around Moscow practically ends. They receive passports with American visas, Victor is the first to fly abroad, Danila says goodbye to Saltykova and also goes to the airport. But before that, he manages to buy several discs.
