New Year’s holidays last from December 31 to January 10 and include New Year (December 31 - January 1) and Orthodox Christmas (January 7). Usually during the holidays theatres, restaurants & clubs organize special New Year & Christmas parties, mostly for families with children. In Russia we call them “Elki” (Rus. - елки).

A holiday party means that Grandfather Frost & the Snow Maiden will appear by all means. They celebrate New Year with children and give them presents.

For more information about Russian Christmas holidays and how to celebrate it with Russians you may read here.

Timur Bekmambetov - Black Lighting


This is a story of Moscow University’s student who becomes the owner of ordinary from the first sight, been-used, but… able to fly «Volga» car. With this car he will be able to not only avoid Moscow traffic jams, but unexpectedly for himself turn to city’s defender, mysterious fighter against Evil.
The car is a Volga, which has a rich history in Russian culture.
Apparently Timur Bekmambetov, who is co-producing this, said that it is «...the Russian response to «Transformers» and «Batman», which means it's more about superheroes and robots than it is the science of a flying car.»
