BRAT 2 / THE BROTHER 2
DIRECTOR: ALEKSEJ BALABANOV
RUSSIA 2000

Daniil Bagrov (Sergei Bodrov jr.), in the smash-hit predecessor BRAT the Russian soldier who returns to St. Petersburg from combat in Chechnya to become the Ramboesque avenger of his humiliated and insulted compatriots, has now branched out to Moscow and Chicago. Assisted once again by his brother, the “Tartar”, he avenges the death of a comrade in Chechnya, who was murdered by a Russian mobster on the orders of an American mafia boss, and at the same time liberates a Russian prostitute from the clutches of her black pimp. The cool professionalism of his deeds starkly contrasts with his populist-patriotic slogans. With 90 prints released, the thriller grossed record profits at cinemas and in video sales.
