Максимальный реализм style. A flashback scene showing a pristine, modern Moscow apartment living room bathed in warm, golden afternoon sunlight. Expensive leather furniture, a view of the city skyline through large clean windows. A blurry figure in a suit stands by the window. The composition is wide and symmetrical, conveying order and success. The colors are rich, warm ambers and creams, contrasting sharply with the previous scene.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Коля: A hyper-realistic portrait of a 40-year-old Russian man who looks 60 due to severe alcoholism. He has a gaunt, puffy face with broken capillaries, unkempt graying hair, and a patchy beard. His eyes are watery, red-rimmed, and filled with profound despair. He wears a dirty, oversized heavy coat and a stained sweater. The texture of his skin is rough and weather-beaten. The lighting is harsh and dramatic, emphasizing the tragedy in his expression. Cinematic, gritty documentary style.
