Scenes of Friendly Ties

Scenes of Friendly Ties (2026) is a quiet Russian drama you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Sonya Raizman — who also appears on screen — it unfolds over a single winter day and night in Moscow. A group of thirty-something former classmates scrambles through the usual urban obstacles to meet in one place and say goodbye to Sasha, who is leaving the city for a long stretch.

Alexander Pal and Evgeny Tsyganov lead the cast. What makes it linger is the unspoken weight of the occasion — not a crisis, just the quiet acknowledgment that some distances become permanent. Stream Scenes of Friendly Ties online on iFILM.
