The film is a reflection on the nature of the charm inherent in St. Petersburg, which never ceases to affect residents and visitors. The city forces those who find themselves in it to rise in their thoughts about it and about life to a philosophical level. St. Petersburg still remains mysterious, undeciphered and therefore endlessly attractive.

"Andrey Bitov. The Green Suitcase" is the first portrait film in the work of Viktor Tikhomirov. Initially, the picture was supposed to reflect the process of writing the book "Chaos and Order", which was conceived by Andrey Bitov, and be called like a book. Later, due to objective reasons, the tape was transformed into a cinematic portrait of the writer, whose image is revealed through philosophical concepts: "chaos" and "order". The film features music by the groups "Volkovtrio" and "Auction". The film was awarded a special jury prize at the festival" Literature and Cinema " in Gatchina (2002).

Viktor Tikhomirov made the only female portrait film about the virtuoso pianist Polina Osetinskaya. She started playing the piano at the age of five, and at six she already gave her first solo concert at the Vilnius Philharmonic. Every day, the young pianist rehearsed for 14-16 hours, taught 10 poems and ran 10 kilometers. In the film, she talks about her childhood, strict discipline and vivid images that she came up with to visualize music. The film uses recordings from the pianist's personal archive, footage from Yevgeny Yufit's film "Killed by Lightning" and video chronicles of the 1980s — the first interviews of Osetinskaya.

The director tells the story of Boris Grebenshchikov through the image of Leo Tolstoy. According to Viktor Tikhomirov, both heroes are similar "in their delusions and achievements". The film has a lot of chronicles and, of course, Grebenshchikov's songs sound, and George Gunitsky described the tape after its premiere at Pushkinskaya 10: "A completely untethered and insanely surreal film in a good way. And it is gratifying that all this postmodern film improvisation is involved on a cool aquarium basis. We need to look at the picture again once or twice, get a better understanding of it. And savor it. A very worthy work."

There will be no winter - an interpretation of the Russian folk tale "Masha and the Bear", told under the composition "There will be no Winter" by the group "Auction". The idea of creating the tape was born in the process of working on films about Andrey Bitov and Boris Grebenshchikov. Then the director came up with and shot the frame "Outgoing Youth", which turned into a fairy tale about a man's dream: to gain additional freedom and ride a virgin. In 2002, the film participated in the program of the Film Festival "Literature and Cinema" in Gatchina and was awarded a special jury prize.
