The legendary composer Mikael Tariverdiev became famous primarily for his music for Soviet films. He entered the Guinness Book of Records as the holder of the largest number of awards in the field of film music. Tariverdiev not only wrote soundtracks for 132 films but also invented a new cinematic language. About how this musical cinematic romantic created and what he dreamed of is revealed in the film "Legends of Music.

He has been on stage for more than thirty years, but has never once been at the epicenter of a major scandal during that time. For a long time, he performed without his name on the marquee because of his dissonant surname, even though the entire country was already singing his songs. He always remained outside the mainstream format, yet it would be hard to find a more quintessentially "people's" singer. Controversial, straightforward, sincere... A doctor, a musician, a poet… Aleksandr Rosenbaum. A man who still doesn't consider himself a star, even though he fills stadiums... A man who, though he hasn't worked on an ambulance for a long time, still considers himself a doctor and will get out of his car to provide first aid.

Once, they drove fans crazy, girls wept over their portraits, and the younger generation dreamed of only one thing — to be just like them, musicians in vocal-instrumental ensembles. In the mid-70s, there were about 40 thousand VIAs in the USSR. This one had a scandalous reputation. The entire lineup of musicians left "Samotsvety" and formed the VIA "Plamya". Forty years later, their songs still play in concert halls, on the radio, and through smartphone speakers. After all, everyone knows, "don't be sad, your whole life is ahead of you."

They are endlessly compared to each other. Both are talented composers, both are innovators without whom it is impossible to imagine domestic cinema. The Dunaevskys are a brand. But behind this facade of well-being lies so many family dramas and secrets! The life of the Dunaevskys is shrouded in a multitude of rumors, gossip, and speculation. In a candid interview, Maxim Dunaevsky talks about his relationship with his father and why he bore his mother's surname until he was sixteen. He reveals details of his personal life, which has always piqued the interest of journalists and caused bewilderment in high society. He explains why he got married seven times and why his seventh wife will be his last.
