The military thriller “August” by Nikita Vysotsky and Ilya Lebedev has earned more than one billion rubles at the domestic box office, according to EAIS. The story follows military intelligence operatives who track down foreign agents operating behind enemy lines.
It’s worth noting that “August” is not the only 2025 blockbuster to become a box-office success. Earlier this year, films such as “The Wizard of the Emerald City: The Yellow Brick Road”, “Finist: The First Bogatyr”, “Yolki 11”, and “The Prophet: The Story of Alexander Pushkin” also surpassed the one-billion-ruble mark.
