Beginning with perestroika and reaching its peak after the demise of the Soviet Union pessimistic youth subculture films abounded in Russia and the former republics Anguely V Rayou is another example of these youth without future films Based on the novel Two Notebooks by Piotr Kojevnikov the action takes place in the Leningrad of 1975 when the stagnation era is at its peak Two teenagers Micha and Galia are experiencing a slow death in the slums of the city Galias aunt is going crazy in her desperation Michas mother is killed by a drunk One of their friends has committed suicide These kids are typical of a generation wasted by alcohol and misfortune Some are bound to become outcasts some will be destroyed and others will be sacrificed in Afghanistan The title is ironic as there is neither paradise nor angels in this story
