Don‘t Think About White Monkeys ("Не думай про белых обезьян") is a Russian social satirical tragicomedy film, directed by Yuri Mamin.

While exploiting their work, Vova does not notice that he begins to fall under the influence of his uninvited guests, discovering for himself a heretofore unknown world of spiritual values.

The artist Gena, who is supposed to draw still lifes, gets caught up in creativity and covers the walls of the basement with frescoes of the Last Judgment - an assembly of hellish monsters and sinners.

The second half of the film is devoted to Vova's time in the attic, which he spends with his new friends, who help him to recover and introduce him to a vegetarian diet and to regular meditations on the roof.

People who measure everything by money are called in the film "Chaldeans", i.e. lackeys, and a financially successful Russian businessman is the subject of ridicule due to his ignorance and primitiveness.

Russia led in the number of viewers, followed by Germany, the USA, Ukraine, Israel, Great Britain, New Zealand, Canada, France, China, and Sweden.

They believe that the most prominent "food for the soul" in the history of cinema is non-commercial in spirit, such as the films of Andrei Tarkovsky, Luchino Visconti, Michael Cimino, John and Nick Cassavetes, Federico Fellini, Robert Zemeckis, Ingmar Bergman and Oliver Stone.

[10] Actress Katerina Ksenyeva, who played the leading female role, received a blessing for the film from the Dalai Lama in India, along with her friend, Tibetan monk Tenchoe.

[11][12] Film director Yuri Mamin is a member of the International Tibet Support Network and also received a blessing from envoys of the Dalai Lama in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The Dalai Lama's envoys said that the film is very relevant in our difficult times for the whole world and contains the energy of enlightenment, which affirms the power of kindness and mercy over the desires of the "masters of life" for money grubbing and barbarity.
