The Truth About SHAMAN: The Dronov Phenomenon (2023)

Documentary

"Shamanomania" has taken hold of everyone. Young women faint at the sight of him and shower him with "suggestive" gifts. Even Mia Boyka has fallen under SHAMAN’s spell—but what does she have to say about him? Where did SHAMAN’s signature microphone gesture come from? Does Yaroslav Dronov possess a special gift? Could the singer be using magic? How did a little-known artist transform into the legendary SHAMAN? What brought him to the brink of life and death? And what was Russia’s biggest star like before his meteoric rise to fame?

Director: Дарья Долматова
