A Portrait of a Stranger (Russian: Портрет незнакомца) is a 2021 Russian drama film directed by Sergey Osipyan.
[1][2][3][4][5] It is scheduled to be theatrically released on January 1, 2022.
At its center is Oleg, a weary-looking but charming actor with a deep voice, who works in radio.
His last source of income—a radio play in which he portrays a Soviet spy—is suddenly canceled, and his wife kicks him out of the house.
These setbacks, along with an encounter with Nikolaev, a celebrated writer and living classic, draw Oleg into a whirlwind of surreal events.
