The Turkish Gambit

(2005)Directed by Dzhanik Fayziev130 minMystery, Adventure, Action, Drama, History

Someone inside the Russian army is passing secrets to the Turks, and in 1877 nobody knows who. Erast Fandorin (Egor Beroev), fresh out of a Turkish prison, has to cross the war zone and reach the Russian side with word of the coming attack. On the road he meets Varvara Suvorova (Olga Krasko). Dzhanik Fayziev, working from Boris Akunin's own script, moves the chase along fast, so suspicion keeps shifting from one face to the next.
