In an exclusive interview with our publication, the artist told how his character is interesting, how relations with Anatoly Mateshko evolved on the site, and why more and more girls directors are becoming in Ukrainian cinema.

Oleg Borisovich, introduce us to your character.

Andrei Romanovich Strizhak - Major General, an experienced man who devoted his whole life to serving in the police (and later - the police). Everyone has seen in his life, was in all sorts of local conflicts, but this did not prevent him to remain an intelligent person..

We know that he is still connected by kinship with the main character.

Yes, Strizhak is the uncle of the main character of Inga. He adores her and for the sake of her own good does not want her to work in the police.. My hero believes that life in America is more suitable for Inge - it’s more prestigious, better earnings, career opportunities. But she is a very independent person, therefore she makes decisions herself.. However, sometimes they are very unpredictable, so my hero has to defend her.

What was the most difficult for you in the process of preparing for the role?.

Difficult texts. They need to be taught, because the main thing for an artist is to know the lyrics thoroughly.. Directors do not like when an actor comes unprepared. In principle, characters like mine are very complex.. There is an erroneous opinion that if you play a general, you must immediately say all your cues in a command voice. Yes, they hear you, do not scream! And the real colonel is quiet, you still have to listen to what he says..

How did you work with director Anatoly Nikolayevich Mateshko?.

Perfectly. On the one hand - it is laconic, on the other - very accurate. I like working with him. Very interesting and talented director. By the way, now there are a lot of talented girls who study directors.. Previously, as it was - some guys and one girl. And now, on the contrary - more girls. And they are strong-willed, persistent, so they build everyone, super!.

Recall in the center of the plot of the series "Who are you?" "- psychotherapist Inga Stefan, who after the strange death of several patients and the disappearance of the groom begins to cooperate with the department of the investigation of especially serious crimes. It turns out that she has been followed by a maniac for many years.. Helping law enforcement agencies to investigate cases, the heroine tries to put herself in the place of the murderer and find answers to the questions: “Who are you? What drives you? ". Inga asks the same questions to her pursuer..
