Kostaki's Gift

Original title: Дар Костаки

In the film, his daughter Aliki, artists A. Brusilovsky, O. Tselkov, I. Shelkovsky, art historians and museum staff tell about the legendary collector Gergia Kostaki. They argue with each other, put forward various versions of the vicissitudes of Kostaki's life and fate, and from fragmentary reflections of the facets of his difficult, and sometimes mysterious personality in the eyes of contemporaries, a portrait of a man who saved and preserved the art of the Avant-garde, which Russia is proud of today, is formed.
