Tracker (1987 Film)
Tracker (russian: link=no, Филёр) is a Soviet feature film, a drama directed by Roman Balayan. The film was shot in 1987 in Kaluga. Plot It's 1916, World War I, the premonition of the revolution. Vorobyov, a gymnasium teacher, retires from service in protest at the dismissal of revolutionary-minded teachers, although he does not share their views. He remains without means of subsistence – there is nothing to pay for a rented apartment, he has a sick child who needs to be treated in the Crimea. Vorobyov is looking for work, even the worst, just to pay money. The gendarmerie offers him to become a filer (spy, secret observer), cooperate with them and report all the unreliable people. Vorobyov faces a monstrous choice – or become a snitch, or remain an honest man without a livelihood. The impossibility of going out makes him commit suicide. Cast * Oleg Yankovsky as Pyotr Vorobyov * Yelena Safonova as Nastya, Vorobyov's wife * Aleksandr Vokach as Head of the Gendarme ...
