Anna Matison is a famous Russian director, screenwriter and playwright. Her impetuous career from a simple journalist to a creator of feature films, she evokes admiration and respect. At 21, Anna became the youngest producer in Russian history by creating her own production studio, REC production. In 2016, she married the popular Russian actor Sergei Bezrukov and gave birth to his daughter in the same year.

Childhood and adolescence

Anna Matison spent her childhood in Akademgorodok in the city of Irkutsk, where she, her two brothers and her parents huddled together in a tiny one-room apartment. The family lived modestly, but the children always spent a lot of time. Anna's mother, a talented journalist, took her to various clubs and sections, trying to develop her daughter's extraordinary abilities, which began to manifest themselves at an early age.


At the age of 16, young Anya was hired as a freelance correspondent for a local TV channel. The talented girl was completely captivated by the work, although at first she had to carry heavy tripods and twist long wires. However, having delved into the essence of journalistic work, Anna became so passionate about this profession that she began to edit videos with her own stories. You could say this was her first directorial experience. The girl successfully combined her work on television with her studies at the international faculty of Irkutsk State University.


In 2004, together with director Yuri Dorokhin, she organized creative studio REC production. The company specialized in creating advertising video and audio products and in 4 years became one of the largest in eastern Siberia in this segment. By the way, I started with this type of activity creative career and the eminent director Fyodor Bondarchuk.

Soon Anna became cramped within the framework of commercial projects, she wanted to do real cinema. In 2008, she tried her hand as a director, making a short film based on the work of Evgeniy Grishkovets “The Mood Has Improved.” The master liked the work, and from that moment their further cooperation began.

Director's career

In 2008, Anna moved to Moscow and entered the screenwriting department of VGIK, from which she graduated in 2013 with honors. During her studies, she met Timur Ezugbaia, who later became her constant collaborator. At this time, a huge number of scripts were written, which formed the basis for her further work in cinema.

Already in the first year, in collaboration with Evgeniy Grishkovets, the full-length film “Satisfaction” was shot, main role in which the writer himself performed. Film with great success was released on screens across the country in 2010. This was followed by whole line works in collaboration with Evgeniy: the documentary “Without a Script”, the audio play “Rivers”, the theatrical plays “Home” and “Weekend”.


In addition, Anna loudly declared herself as a documentary director. She became an author wonderful films about the outstanding pianist of our time Denis Matsuev - “Orchestra Rehearsal” and “Musician”. Both works were highly appreciated by the maestro himself.

In 2012-13, she created three films about the Mariinsky Theater and its brilliant conductor Valery Gergiev. Particularly worth noting is the work on the life and work of composer Sergei Prokofiev, “During the Journey.” The film was created based on the musician's diaries, and the role of Prokofiev in it was played by Konstantin Khabensky.


Anna wrote the script for the popular series of New Year's films "Yolki" (with the exception of the first part). In 2013-14, she tried herself in musical cinema, filming children's musical"The Adventures of Little Sashka Krapivkin."


In 2016 it was released new picture Anna Matison's "Milky Way", in which the main role was played by Sergei Bezrukov. This film became significant in the lives of the actor and director.


Personal life of Anna Matison

The idea to invite Sergei to the main role did not come to Anna right away. At first she saw Konstantin Khabensky at this place, with whom negotiations were even conducted. But their creative views did not coincide, and Matison at the last moment approved Bezrukov for this role.


And I was not mistaken - Sergei coped with the task perfectly, and the magical atmosphere of the surroundings of Lake Baikal, where the main filming took place, contributed to the emergence of love story director and actor. Upon arrival in Moscow, Bezrukov broke up with his wife Irina Bezrukova, and on March 11, 2016, the lovers legalized their relationship.

Sergei Bezrukov and Anna Matison - the story of the novel

Friends of actor Sergei Bezrukov spoke about the details of the birth of his romance with director Anna Matison.

As you know, Sergei Bezrukov broke up with his wife Irina. This couple was broken up by 31-year-old director Anna Matison. Friends and acquaintances of Sergei Bezrukov spoke about the details of the origin of their relationship. It turns out that the romance began on Lake Baikal during the filming of the film "Milky Way".

Sergei Bezrukov had known Anna Matison since 2011, when she wrote the script for the film “Yolki-2,” in which the actor starred. New collaboration- the film "Milky Way", directed by Mathison - brought them closer not only as colleagues film set.

As Bezrukov admitted to his friends, Matison gave him the most expensive gift - a meeting with the wild nature of Lake Baikal.

“Anna decided that we would film “The Milky Way” on Olkhon Island on Lake Baikal, far from civilization,” Pavel Bitsura, director of the film set in Irkutsk, told Komsomolskaya Pravda. “When Sergei Bezrukov was taken to the island by helicopter, he was delighted. His eyes were burning, he threw his arms to the side and laughed loudly, inhaling the frosty air."

“He is a very pleasant person, absolutely accessible, open,” says Bitsura about Bezrukov. “He was given a luxury hotel room, and the whole group lived in another, simpler hotel. But Sergei spent all the time with us, talked, had lunch, dinner. With director Anna Matison, of course, he had a special relationship. But this is understandable: the director-actor relationship is always more intense work, communication. Together after filming in the evening they discussed the next day and sometimes argued. But Anna is a person with humor, with "It's easy to communicate with her. In a word, we got along."

Exactly on the set among wildlife Baikal, Bezrukov and Matison began a relationship.

“They looked happy. But I attributed this to creative happiness, when people are passionate about a common cause. Then they told me that they were supposedly having an affair,” Bitsura pointed out.

“In the summer, Sergei Bezrukov and Anna Matison always came together for filming at the pavilion in Moscow,” Dmitry Leviev, an employee of the lighting crew of the film “Milky Way,” told KP. “Anna was very kind to Bezrukov. She teased him, laughed, joked. will take him by the hand: “Let’s go talk.” They walk away. Everyone saw with what shining eyes Anna looked at him. They hugged often. With other actors, Anna behaved more restrained, in a workmanlike way. She addressed many of them as you. But Bezrukov - everyone " Seryozha" and on you. The group said that Anna and Sergei spend a lot of time together."

The Bezrukovs have not yet officially divorced. However, Irina in her the only interview has already made it clear that she started life with clean slate and is not going to return Sergei.

“We recently talked to her, and I asked: they say, you endured so much, maybe you would give up on Serezha’s next hobby,” Irina’s friend told KP. “But Ira made it clear that he made the decision to separate.” Serezha said that he had a woman and for the first time it was serious. Ira was forced to come to terms. Sergei left Ira, from their shared penthouse, and now lives in the apartment of his friend, who went abroad. By the way, this “shelter” appeared at Seryozha’s four years ago, because he sometimes needs to be alone."

“I talked with both spouses, and, in my opinion, Sergei and Irina Bezrukov will still be together,” says Mosfilm casting director Marina Ivkina. “Sergei is 41 years old, the transition period... It will pass. But the Bezrukovs are united as if by heaven. Ira starred in " Ice Age"They treated each other with reverence and just a year ago they radiated love."

“Sergei and Anna are in love, they inspire and feed each other,” a friend of the artist told KP. “But can two such creative people get along?”

The reaction of Bezrukov’s parents to new novel their son.

Thus, the actor’s mother told reporters regarding Matison: “I don’t want to hear about her!”

Bezrukov’s father was more restrained: “This is Sergei’s personal life. He does everything right. And I will accept any of his choices.”

Actor Sergei Bezrukov was married to actress Irina Bezrukova, and this state of affairs seemed unshakable for 15 long years.

In 2015, news of the divorce of one of the most beautiful couples Russian cinema amazed fans. The reason for Sergei's departure was new love. He went to the director and producer, playwright and screenwriter Anna Matison.

From journalist to director

Anna Matison was born in Irkutsk in 1983. Her mother was a famous Irkutsk journalist.

Anna loved mathematics very much as a child, and assumed that her life would be connected with this subject. For example, with the economy.

As a result, she entered the international faculty of Irkutsk State University.

While studying she worked part-time as a freelance correspondent on local television, and worked her way up from correspondent to program editor.

Soon, together with director Yuri Dorokhin, Anna founded the company REC.production. The company was engaged in the creation of commercials and videos. The company collaborated with large customers such as Transneft, Atomenergomash and others.

It was at this time that Anna realized that creating her own worlds was much more interesting to her than integrating into an existing one.

In 2008, Anna Matison decides to move to Moscow, where she enters the VGIK screenwriting department..

And in 2013 he graduated from VGIK with honors.

In 2008, Anna filmed her debut based on the script by Evgeniy Grishkovets, “The Mood Has Improved.” Grishkovets was interested in the work, and he offered cooperation to the young screenwriter.

Together with Anna they write the script full-length film "Satisfaction". This film was released widely and took part in many festivals.

Together with Grishkovets, Matison worked on the documentary series “Without a Script” and on the play “Home.”

Anna Matison also wrote scripts for the films “Yolki-2”, “Yolki-3”, “Yolki-2014”. While working on the film “Milky Way,” Anna took on the position of director. She met on the set of this film. with Sergei Bezrukov.

Love and Baikal

There is an opinion that the future spouses met on the set of “Yolki-2”, where Sergei Bezrukov played one of the roles. Mathieson denies this information. She wrote the script for this film and did not interact with the artists in any way.

Anna and Sergey met on Lake Baikal, on Olkhon Island, in February 2015.

It was there that the shooting of the lyrical comedy “Milky Way” with Bezrukov in the title role took place.

Anna Matison spent a lot of time together both on and off the set. They talked a lot, built creative plans, and through these conversations their love was born.

Coincidence

It so happened that it was in March 2015 that the only son of Bezrukov’s wife, Irina Bezrukova, died. He was found in a Moscow apartment.

It was an accident - Andrei fell, hit his temple, and death occurred instantly.

At the same time, rumors about a quarrel in the Bezrukov family reached their peak. They said that Sergei did not come to his stepson’s funeral, that he had caught his wife cheating, and many other unpleasant things.

Interesting notes:

Irina put an end to this story. Her original program “Conversation on Stage” was aired on the channel “360” near Moscow.

The first guest of the program was her then-ex-husband Sergei Bezrukov. At the end of the interview, Irina handed Sergei a blank sheet of paper.

Later Irina gave frank interview magazine “Hello!”, where she spoke about the state of affairs in their family. Yes, she and Sergei are divorced, but they are still connects with a common cause - Moscow Provincial Theater, Fund for Support of Sociocultural Projects, which they created together with Irina.

And she gave me a blank sheet of paper ex-husband as a symbol that now his life can start from scratch.

Life from scratch with Anna Matison

In 2016, the couple got married. Now Sergei Bezrukov and Anna Matison are raising their common daughter Maria.

In addition to family matters, Bezrukov and Matison developed a creative union. They were released in March 2017 joint film“After You” with Sergei in the title role. This time Anna took a swing at the drama, and largely due to the fact that she wrote the script for Bezrukov.

Previously, when the script was written for an unknown actor, Anna limited herself in many ways, because she was not sure whether the artist could cope with the proposed task. She is confident in Bezrukov. In her opinion, Sergei can play anything.

The film “After You” is a poignant story about a ballet dancer who ended his career.

Anna has previously paid a lot of attention to classical music in her work. She took off documentary about his fellow countryman, pianist Denis Matsuev, about Valery Gergiev, collaboration with the Mariinsky Theater.

Sergei Bezrukov calls this film Anna's gift. He always loved to dance, and in choreography classes at the Moscow Art Theater School he was among the first at the ballet barre.

In the film, 90% of the dances are performed by Bezrukov himself. In this role famous actor no one has seen it yet.

It is known that in the first marriage it was not possible to give birth to a child. Sergei and Irina Bezrukova tried for a long time, tried all treatment methods, but it was all in vain.

Therefore, the birth of daughter Masha in 2016 was the main gift for Sergei.

Outside of the director's stage, Anna is a very homely, gentle person. “Family comes first, it’s not even frowned upon.”

Anna Matison does not use the services of a nanny, believing that the child should spend as much time as possible with his parents.

The mother’s profession allows her to work at home, but even when filming, the Bezrukovs took their daughter with them. She had her own trailer. The actors joke: “On set, Masha is the only one who has a rider.”

This news became the leader of news feeds: Sergei Bezrukov legalized his relationship with Anna Matison. Let us remind you: last fall, no less noise was caused by the recognition of the now ex-wife of the famous artist Irina Bezrukova that her 15-year marriage with Sergei was over. And soon rumors appeared that the actor had found new love- director from Irkutsk Anna Matison, who starred in the film “Milky Way”.

The couple did not advertise their relationship - they also hid the wedding. The public learned about the news from Bezrukov’s friend Vadim Vernik (brother of Igor Vernik), who posted on the Internet the text of a text message received from the actor: “Vadik, dear! We signed! But we don't make loud statements. Quiet, no fuss. We don’t want them to ask: when, where, and so on. We protect our happiness."

The news came as a surprise to everyone, even to the bride's family.

"Told by phone"

“I’m very happy for Anya and Sergei,” said grandmother Oktyabrina Pavlovna Matison, who lives in Irkutsk, in a conversation with Komsomolskaya Pravda. - I congratulated them on the phone. I talked to them on the phone on March 8th and noticed that they were in a good, festive mood...

No. Everything was done quietly. There were no weddings and we, relatives, were not invited. Without saying anything, we registered. I only found out about this a couple of days later - my daughter said it was Anna’s mother. And the daughter found out from them themselves over the phone - already as a fait accompli.

- Why didn’t they organize a wedding?

Work doesn't allow it yet. They are also working on a new film (see below. - Ed.). Busy. We just went and signed during a break between work. And they didn’t want any fuss. They don't show their feelings. Moreover, this is not the first marriage for both - both him and her.

- Is this Anna’s second marriage?!

She had formerly man. But it didn’t work out there.

- Did you wish the newlyweds children?

So, most importantly, I thought: why were they in such a hurry to carry out this procedure? Maybe they are already expecting a baby?

She and her mother were whispering about something. But this is such a delicate topic...

- Anna wants a child from Sergei?

Certainly.

- Does he dream of a daughter or a son?

He says any child is welcome.

- Maybe she wants to become a mother of many children?

Maybe. Her mother has many children, she has three children.

- What did you give the newlyweds for their wedding?

I prepared a wedding gift for them in advance. I thought: what if she unexpectedly gets married? And she prepared a Japanese set of very fine porcelain. She gave the gift to her eldest grandson, who lives in Moscow.

- Anna introduced you to her fiancé?

Certainly. Even last year. They came to us in Irkutsk together. We really like Sergei. Intelligent, attentive, caring, charming. But Anya, of course, is also worth such praise!

-Have you met Bezrukov’s parents?

Due to my health, I cannot fly to Moscow. My daughter, Anna’s mother Olga, flew there (she also lives in Irkutsk. - Ed.). She met Sergei's parents. Everything is fine. I am happy for them, let them be happy!

Ring - according to signs

Sergei once told me a story about ex-wife Irina and wedding ring“, one of the actor’s friends shared with KP. - Seryozha first bought both of them standard yellow gold rings. But Irina wanted something more modern - with a diamond. As a result, she had two wedding rings from Sergei, and she wore the one with a diamond. And there is a sign that Sergei knew about: the wedding ring should be smooth and even - and then it will be like this family life. This marriage between Irina and Sergei was not easy and collapsed in the end. So, for his marriage to Anna Matison, Sergei bought simple gold wedding rings.

Ballet! There is no better thing for an artist

Now Sergei and Anna are working on a new film “After You”. It will be directed by Anna Matison, and Bezrukov will play a ballet dancer. They say that for this role Sergei lost almost 10 kilos.

Before filming, Bezrukov took lessons from professional choreographer Radu Poklitaru. The theme of the ballet is new for the actor, but for Anna Matison it is a familiar element. She is well versed in music, opera, and a fan of ballet. Previously, as a director, she staged the opera “The Golden Cockerel” at the Mariinsky Theater (conducted by Gergiev), and she herself has a musical education.

On his official website, Bezrukov said:

“There will be scenes in Bolshoi Theater, and in the Mariinsky Theater. And even a REAL BALLET, which will be included in the repertoire Mariinsky Theater. But the film is not about ballet. The focus is on the personality itself - controversial and contradictory. As for ballet... I studied dance at the Moscow Art Theater School, my dance teacher Larisa Borisovna Dmitrieva praised me very much. I know firsthand what a machine is. Plie, adagio, balance, frappe are terms familiar to me.”

Sergei can dance, confirmed “KP” director Alexander Baranov, who directed Bezrukov in the films “Plot” and “Gentlemen, Good Luck!” ( a new version. - Ed.). In “The Gentlemen...” a short piece of his dance was included in the film, and when they were filming on set, the whole group came running to watch him do it. Insanely beautiful and plastic! The dance was modern, dynamic, so you could die from the tension, but Seryozha danced everything brilliantly!

OPINION OF A COLLEAGUES

“He listens to her as a director”

The film “After You” is in some ways a psychological drama, in some ways a philosophical movie,” said “KP” actress Tamara Akulova. - The hero of Sergei Bezrukov is a dancer, a former ballet star, who left the ballet due to illness. I play his mother, and his father is Vladimir Menshov.

- How do you feel about the fact that Anna Matison became Sergei’s wife?

This is a great choice for Seryozha. He is talented and so is she. On the set I saw very respectful attitude to Anna from Sergei's side. He listens to her like an actor to a director.
