The flow of those action films in which both the plots and the fates of the heroes are repeated, and even the scenery does not differ much from each other, has long ceased to inspire modern youth for exploits. The series "Kadetstvo" has become a kind of outlet, a bright spot that attracts young people and inflames their interest in a military career.
The patriotism of today's youth cannot be compared with the patriotism of their fathers and grandfathers. The series "Kadetstvo" is a kind of attempt to convey to young guys that it is prestigious to be a military man, and it is interesting to study the basics of military affairs. And the attempt, it should be noted, was very successful. The plot of the film contains not only a description of training at the Suvorov School, but also the relations of pupils, moreover, from completely different social strata, with completely different fates and characters. The creators of the series managed to shoot a picture that engages in what is happening on the screen, does not let go for a minute, and the viewer is looking forward to the continuation with impatience.
Geography of filming of the series "Kadetstvo"
The series was filmed at the Suvorov military school, which is located in the city of Tver, on the site of the first educational institution - the theological seminary. Moreover, the work took place in classrooms, and in the courtyard of the school, and even in a nearby hotel complex, so we can safely say that the film was filmed in Tver as a whole.
The shooting brought a lot of pleasure to both the residents of the city and the Suvorov cadets. The fact is that the director tried to make sure that even the season in the shot corresponded to the season in reality. At the school, simultaneously with the work of the film crew, classes were also held.
After finishing work on the first season of the series, its creators decided to hold a friendly party for the team. The event was planned as quiet gatherings in the most picturesque place near the city. However, popularity played a role, and not only direct participants, but also reporters and fans of the film came there.
How "Kadetstvo" was filmed
The fact that the roles of the main characters are played by teenagers, of course, left an imprint on the filming process. The boys in the acting team got together as one, restless, loving to joke and play pranks. However, the director nevertheless noted their extraordinary efficiency, readiness to continue shooting even after many hours of marathon of scenes and frames, endless takes.
And the idea of the creators of the popularization of patriotism, love for the motherland and military affairs was quite a success. They succeeded without pathos, without pressure and loud speeches-bravado to return the boys' interest in the primordially male cause - serving the country and the people. Thanks to this series, military uniforms are again in vogue, pomaded boys in effeminate clothes are losing their former popularity. At the peak of demand, the girls again have strong men with a military bearing and a strong character, always ready for practical jokes and jokes, that is, similar to the heroes of Kadetstvo.
