Film About Love. The life of an irreverent film professor

At some point in this film, Dima, a film professor turned into the protagonist of this film, wonders if it will be worthwhile to make a film about his life, because he sees nothing interesting in himself. Perhaps, even, this whole idea is rather embarrassing.

And yet, his pupil, the director Dmitri Kalashnikov, continues to follow him in his daily life. Dima plays with his cat, drinks a lot of vodka, argues with his closest friends, then embraces them and, of course, continues drinking to remain drunk. In the midst of all this, the idea of making a film about a great love arises.
