The total runtime is about two-and-a-half hours, split into two parts. There are two official YouTube uploads of the film — one which splits the two parts into different videos, and one which stitches them together into one video. I figure it's probably best to go for the two-video upload so we can stretch our legs and take a leak at the intermission.
Plot description from IMDb: ASSA is set in Crimea during the winter in 1980. A young musician (Bananan) falls for a mobster's (Krymov) young mistress (Alika). The parallel story line involves a 19th Century assassination plot.
I can also mention that this movie has a lot of musical numbers and experimental scenes, and is often looked at as a turning point for perestroika and rock music's position in Soviet popular culture.
Content warnings for I guess age gap romance, there's some very brief man ass in one scene, there's murder and other violence, "moderate profanity", and "mild alcohol, drugs & smoking".
Edit: Because of the delay we'll be watching part 2 on Sunday — mark your calendars!
