Description
This book tells about a dynasty of writers and film directors. Yuri Pavlovich German was a popular playwright and novelist in the 1930sโ1960s. Alexei Yurievich and Alexei Alexeevich German wrote scripts and made films that attracted the attention of film critics, audiences, and film festival juries alike.
The task the author set himself was to try to find the origins of creativity, understand the psychology of the creator, and explain, at least for himself, why Yuri German, his son, and his grandson took such different paths to success. If we assume that everything is determined only by time and era, we are unlikely to understand anything. Both under Soviet rule and in post-perestroika Russia, writers and film directors created their works, perceiving the events of the surrounding life differently and embodying their ideas in accordance with their own worldview and their notion of what the reader and the moviegoer need. So one cannot do without analyzing biography and lineage here, nor without telling about the people who surrounded the heroes of this book throughout their life journey.
