Leningrad: Tsoi

Great Guns director, Ilya Naishuller, has released his latest promo for Russian rock band, Leningrad.

Imagine Duncan Jones’ great sci-fi feature Moon meets Strictly, but with added steroids and you’re somewhere near the sheer audacity of this top promo for Russian ska-punk band Leningrad. It follows the adventures of a lonely astronaut (played by Leningrad’s frontman, Sergei Shnurov) and his animated alien friend, Gesha, who, finding themselves on a dying spaceship somewhere in the cosmic far-future, decide to approach the problem with dancing and champagne. Stupendous fun. 

This is the director's fourth promo for Leningrad. Last year his promo for the band's hit Kolshik earned him a number of major award wins, including at Cannes, the One Show, D&AD, Kinsale, Berlin MVA, and UKMVA.
