SYNOPSIS: The the boy so nice, we named his sequel twice!  This is the follow-up release to our number 2 seller for 2009!  Alexey, Dima and Artem join Igor for a day of nothingness!  No trips, no learning, just boys alone outside, playing games, lighting fires and having some lunch.  The guys then "retire" to the sauna where the ultimate in nudist freedom rules.  There the friends play checkers, slide across the floor incessantly, massages all around, and play a game of "name that city" and their own version of Charades involving movies.

EDITORIAL REVIEW: For the longest time, Igor was the #1 seller on this website: for the last half of 2008, and for the first half of 2009 (it's still pretty close to #1).  That's a record held by only one other Azov Films title, Vladik Anthology 12:14.  In fact, if you add the download version of the original Igor on the the DVD sales, it would comfortably sit in the #1 position and even surpass Vlad (yikes!).  As we said in the synopsis, "the boy so nice we named him twice" has his follow-up, self-titled film and we put the focus right were it should be - on Igor!

With many of these Ukrainian Azov Films, the boys start the day learning about their rich heritage; as Ukrainians and descendants of USSR citizens.  However, today we forego the formalities of education and let the boys choose what they want to do - and it involves fire!  I suppose you can say all that past education has taught them how to light a quick, and safe fire without brining down their community.  Today, teamwork helps them gather some logs to sit on, and some newspaper and kindling to get the fire going.  Snacks and a soccer ball keeps their attention, but as the afternoon goes on, even their "roaring fire" can't keep the boys warm for there is a slight chill in the air.  After all, this is early spring in Ukraine and as the cloud cover gets more dense and the wind picks up, the group heads to the sauna. 

The usual sauna antics are on full display, with Igor leading the way!  We put away the Twister game in favor of Movie Charades and "name that city on Igor's underwear" (a popular past time for passing the time in a sauna)!  And of course no sauna visit would be complete without the ritualistic cleansing massage of the hornbeam branch - a real popular past time ;-)  They each take turns with the branch, dunking it in cold water while their buddy lays in the super hot sauna and is "beaten" with it (not literally of course, but that is what it's called).  The day comes to a close with a refreshing shower and a brief interview before the boys head home.

As usual, we've subtitled the entire film in English.  So you can follow along with Dima as he plays Charades and tries to act out his favorite movie and movie characters (perhaps even English won't help you with this one!).  Or pick a city on the "Igor's map" that begins with a 'Y' and settle an argument between the boys.  Is there one?  Does New York count, or is that cheating?  Suddenly subtitling these films makes the entire film make sense - and will stop you from fast-forwarding through it!  The camera really is a "fly on the wall" because the boys are themselves and you can get a good feel for who and what they are all about as they talk with each other.

Get the full Igor, Igor! experience and tack on the impressive 224-picture photo DVD for just $13.95 more.  This optional disc has hi-resolution digital photos (not screen captures) that you can pop in your DVD player (as long as it's a newer player) and screen them on your TV, or you can download them to your computer and edit 'till your heart's content!
