The joyful and unexpected news was the appearance of the cult Russian actress Liya Akhedzhakova at the present Odessa Film Festival.

The star will represent the film "The meek" together with the director Sergei Loznitsa. The world premiere of the film took place at the Cannes Film Festival and already managed to get publicity.

During the conversation with journalists, Liya Medzhidovna noted: to work at Loznitsa - "there can be no shame, it's an honor," TSN correspondent reports..

Currently, the cult actress admits - because of bad memory, she is not easily remembered about her stay in Odessa.

"I because of the bad memories of droplets remember what happened in Odessa for the rest of my life. It's all my life, here I'm tearing away some moments, "- she says, adding - at the Odessa film studio was shot.

"I remember Olga Volkova was shot there, I remember such a gazebo with white columns by the sea. Damn it knows that we played, about what, "- the actress answered journalists.

During the conference, Liya Medzhidovna was introduced to the famous Ukrainian actress Larisa Kadochnikova. The women embraced, and Ahedzhakova added - her Odessa life by the grains is poured into her.

As a result, Leah almost burst into tears.

Now the actress happy makes a viewing of "crazy" films and visits to performances.

An ingenious actress now does not act in film a lot. The reason for this, according to her, is the lack of the necessary roles for your favorite directors.

"I do not have Zvyagintsev, I do not have Khlebnikov, I do not have Todorovsky, I do not have Sigarev, whom I opened. With "Volchok" called all the producers I know - take it, so no, that you. No one will ever look that you. He himself took off and now, which is in the world of the prize - the whole harvest was collected. Then this is his amazing "Country Oz", you know? Well, he does not have for me, "- she summed up.

Among the favorite actors-partners of Akhedzhakova - the late Bogdan Stupka. Says: when they played together, Bogdan Silvestrovich even deviated from the instruments, so that Li's face would be illuminated better.

Currently, the star appears on the screens a little and, besides the named reason, provides the following: very carefully selects the roles, not paying attention to their size. However, in the film "Love-carrots," it "pulled in".

"I immediately understood everything, from the first second. But they attacked me, and very good people. They have added to this agitation a wonderful person. This Alexey Serebryakov. Lesha, looking into my eyes, tried to persuade me, "- recalls Leah.

However, the role of Elizabeth Nikolaevna for Akhedzhakova has not been rewritten.

During her long career, the actress embodied a lot of characters. Does not hide: sometimes she only played for money.

"The junk played first. There was no money, such a salary was beggarly and there were no options. I thought that I would play all my life. Well, such an actress in the role of junk, but there was Eldar Sanych (Ryazanov) and increased my self-identification, "- stressed the star.

By the way, perhaps the most beloved character of the audience was Olga Pavlovna, director of the club from Liia Medzhidovna.

The star likes to work with Sergei Loznitsa, as the director raises problems, which is "the pain of our time".

In the end, the actress remembered that her parents did not want her future on stage, but the fate had taken shape.

Recall, in 2016, Liya Akhedzhakova talked with TSN on the topic of Nadezhda Savchenko and indignation, which she called the actions of the Russian authorities.
