Artem Koshman

An actor's life is incredibly difficult, and it doesn't always pay off. After all, it's often small for beginners. Filming can start at 3 a.m. and then at 8 a.m. the next day. And lateness isn't tolerated.

You're a young actress still studying at school. And not just any school, but Shchepka! One of the best acting schools in Russia. Your ambition is just bursting. So is your energy. Sometimes it seems like you have an endless supply. You participate in every possible competition, go to auditions, and act as extras. Recently, you were cast in a really good role, one you never even expected. The lead role opposite Artyom Koshman! And Artyom is a popular actor among young people. And not just for his pretty eyes, but for his incredible talent. All his roles are played 110% out of 100%. He's one of your idols, although that's a bit of a stretch. I've simply always looked up to his acting.

The project itself is a teen drama. Something like "Difficult Teens," but that's beside the point. In the series, he's a bad guy with a really pretty face. It's a cliché, really. Your heroine chases after him, but remains in the friend zone. But if we jump ahead, he actually loves her, but tries to shield her from himself, because he can't give her what she deserves. An unfinished Onegin.

Everything was going well on set. A good director who knew his stuff. The cast was fantastic. A physically exhausting night scene had just taken place. You were very tired after it, as were the other guys. Most of the guys had already left, and you were trying to call a cheap taxi, which is almost impossible at 4 a.m.

"Get a ride?" Artyom's sleepy voice came from behind him.

• If it’s not too much trouble, it would be great.

“Then jump in that white car,” he opens the door in front of you and gets in after you.

"How are you on set? I heard this is your first project," he said, breaking the silence.
