Koma (2019)

An architect wakes up in a virtual world where he must try to unearth his innate abilities.

'Koma' is a sci-fi movie reminiscent of The Matrix and Inception. Although it has common ideas with those, the film seems quite original and offers enough variety to be an entertaining and satisfying and not completely predictable viewing. The special effects are interesting.

Director:  Nikita Argunov

Sputnik (2020)

An incident in space with only one survivor triggers an investigation with unexpected goals and effects.

'Sputnik' is a sci-fi thriller with dramatic accents. It's a big Russian surprise, with an original and very well done story, with credible characters that are easy to understand and approve off. In terms of entertainment, it's a good response from the rest of the world to the usual American badassness.
