Siberian Education (known as Deadly Code in USA;[1] Italian: Educazione siberiana) is a 2013 Italian crime-drama film directed by Gabriele Salvatores. It is based on the autobiographic novel with the same name written by Nicolai Lilin.[2] The film was nominated to 11 David di Donatello awards, including Best Film and Best Director.[3] Mauro Pagani won the Ciak d'oro for Best Score.[4] The novel by Lilin has never been published in Russia and a Russian journalist found upon investigation that the story was fabricated.[5]
Plot
Kolyma and Gagarin are two boys in a small village of Siberia, who are raised by Kolyma's grandfather Kuzja. Kuzja imposes very strict education to the children, focusing on hatred for the Soviets, regarded as enemies. In a robbery by Kolyma and Gagarin, and their friends Mel e Vitalic other boys against Soviets, Gagarin is stopped and arrested. Seven years later he is freed, but he discovers that his world has completely changed, and he does not know how to succeed in solving his problems. Gagarin finally discovers that the ideals of his people have collapsed in the drug trade, and so he comes into this new system, but he ends up in strong contrast with Kolyma.
