Award-winning adaptation of three short stories by Nikolai Gogol - "The Nose," "The Overcoat," and "Diary of a Madman."
A self-important man wakes up one morning to find his nose has gone missing. The nose shows up in town, dressed to the nines, commanding more respect than the man himself ever got.
A humble postal clerk spends every rouble on a gorgeous new coat. When it's stolen the very night of its debut, his life spirals downward...until his ghost gets its revenge.
And a madman falls in love with a beautiful girl, but she's in love with a bad boy. He rescues his beloved, but is dragged off to an asylum. He doesn't object: he believes he's off to Spain to become the new queen.
Welcome to Nevsky Prospect, a magical place where chairs dance, cows buy tea, and dogs compose epic poems. Anything can happen here.
