The Synopsis

The documentary about Mikhail Gorshenev, the leader of the group "The King and the Fool", was created over the course of four years. The film is released 10 years after Pot's death and in the year of the 35th anniversary of the band's existence. The film tells in detail and fascinatingly about the childhood and youth of the leader of the "King and the Fool", the moment of the founding of the group and all stages of the musical collective. The punks started with rehearsals at Gorshka's mom's apartment in a residential area of Leningrad, then slowly conquered the underground scene of the city, and towards the end of the 1990s they became known throughout Russia and confidently assembled giant stadiums. Today, when the "King and the Fool" has been gone for 10 years, the band's fans are just as loyal and numerous, and the band's hits are still playing on the country's radio stations. There is no doubt that the punk rock band has left a huge mark on the history of modern music in Russia.
