Winter Evening in Gagra (Russian: Зимний вечер в Гаграх, romanized: Zimniy vecher v Gagrakh) is a 1985 musical film directed by Karen Shakhnazarov.
Plot
Rapid rhythm and playful virtuoso improvisation - that's what tap dance is. The protagonist of the film who once was a famous tap dancer, an idol of the public, lives today modestly and discreetly. He is a dance tutor for pop groups where the other stars shine.
And suddenly everything changes: the old artist suddenly remembers his youth. A somewhat strange encounter with a young man who comes with a broken leg affects him; the man asks to be taught the tap dance beat.
