Three Seconds

The story is set at the 1972 Munich Olympics where the U.S. team lost the basketball championship for the first time in 36 years. The final moments of the final game have become one of the most controversial events in Olympic history. With play tied, the score table horn sounded during a second free throw attempt that put the U.S. ahead by one. But the Soviets claimed they had called for a time out before the basket and confusion ensued. The clock was set back by three seconds twice in a row and the Russians finally prevailed at the very last. The U.S. protested, but a jury decided in the USSR’s favor and Team USA voted unanimously to refuse its silver medals. The Soviet players have been treated as heroes at home.

It doesn't matter what genre, what actor, pictures, whatever; a story has to be interesting, dialogues, creativity, even if it's a war movie, a sports movie, a science fiction movie, a romantic movie, a musical movie, it doesn't matter if it has big names, pretty faces and impressive visual effects, it's worth nothing without the basics; a common problem in Hollywood today, decent story telling. In the case of Dvzheine vverk, they made even people who are not interested in sports interested in this film, without forcing propaganda, great dialogue and impressive visual effects with a small fraction of the budget of a Hollywood blockbuster on this scale .
