Director: Vitaly Sumin.
TAGLINE: Los Angeles, 2010: A Man Torn Between Two Women, Russian Mafia and Millions of Dollars... PLOT SUMMARY: Steven, an American actor obsessed with the works of Russian writer Dostoyevsky, invites a Russian call girl named Irina to his apartment for his research. Little does he know that this unknowingly opens the door to her past with the Russian Mafia and her present involving stolen Mafia money. The two of them are soon caught in a tangle of murder along with a beautiful Mexican immigrant who is the only key to saving him. PLOT OUTLINE: “Notes From The New World” is a contemporary retelling of Dostoevsky’s novella which unfolds in Los Angeles of 2009 where dreams and harsh realities collide. It is a place where almost everyone spies on everyone else, and everyone seems to be playing a dangerous game. Steven is torn between the loves of two women, each of them pretending to be somebody else. The danger only intensifies when Steven comes face to face with the Russian Mafia. Soon he will discover who he really is. On another level the story suggests an amazing reading of the state of the post modern/post communist world. Are we witnessing certain realization of Dostoevsky’s prophecies – especially as far as the Underground Man’s dilemma regarding Love/Terrorism is concerned?..
