Ice (Russian: Лёд, translit. Lyod) is Russian musical romantic drama film directed by Oleg Trofim about a capable skater who is put in the hospital because of a mistake made by her partner which places her dreams in jeopardy, however, in her life appears a hockey player, whose love helps her believe in herself again.[2][3] Starring Aglaya Tarasova, Alexander Petrov and Miloš Biković, who before that practically did not stand on skates, have received an intensive two-month training. The most difficult was the preparation of Aglaia Tarasova: Girl in parallel involved in dancing, figure skating, singing and even diving. By the way during the filming of the scene under water in the pool she spent nearly 12 hours.

The premiere in Russia took place on February 14, 2018 and the Olympic Committee.[4]

Plot

The life of Nadya Lapshina (Aglaya Tarasova), a humble girl from Irkutsk, changed dramatically when she was noticed by legendary skater Vladimir Leonov (Miloš Biković). The pair quickly gained popularity – with their plans including participation in the Olympic Games and a shotgun wedding. Absolute happiness was within arm's reach, but Leonov ended up causing Nadya a serious injury. The forgotten champion would have never again left her apartment, if it were not for a new acquaintance – failed hockey player Sasha Gorin (Alexander Petrov). Now our heroes must go out on the ice together and prove that true feelings (from hate to love) can pave the way to reaching a dream.

Filming

Initially, the scenario did not specify that the events occur exactly in Irkutsk and Lake Baikal. It was noted only that a place of action is a certain provincial city. However, winter photographs of Lake Baikal impressed the director Oleg Trofim and he decided to shoot there. In total, the film crew spent about a week in Irkutsk, it was in the middle of March 2016.[6]

Most of the filming took place in Moscow. A number of scenes were filmed at the Olympic venues in the city of Sochi.[7]
