Basically seems not have played outside of Russia at all so you are really going to have to dig to find rights holder. It was in the Moscow Film Fest in 2010 so that might be your best lead. There appears to have been possibly legit release from Soyez Video but they don't seem to be around. You might just contact Mosfilm , it may not be theirs but they are so freaking dominant that they may be able to help you track it. Try the same with the 2nd title Sadly a perfect example of how hard it is to get ANY rights to most foreign films. It is not that they don't have rights holders but since the overwhelming majority don't get US distribution, tracking them down can be really difficult and this film is less than 15 years old, it usually gets worse with older ones.
