Ekaterina Shagalova - biography, date of birth, place of birth, filmography, clips.
Born June 5, 1976 in Moscow.
Film director, screenwriter. Member of the Guild of Filmmakers of Russia.
Her father is the famous screenwriter and director Alexander Mindadze, who worked for many years with Vadim Abdrashitov ("Parade of the Planets", "Time of the Dancer", etc.), the author of the script for the wonderful film "Space as a Premonition" directed by Alexei Uchitel. Mom - Galina Orlova - actress (Betty in the movie "Hello, I'm your aunt!"). Grandfather is an outstanding playwright Anatoly Grebnev.
But Katya has always been very independent - neither her father's nor her mother's daughter. She took the pseudonym of Shagalov, which brought her creative luck.
Studying in the eleventh grade, Katya was "in charge of the regions" at the Kvadrat news agency, organized by a childhood friend, Fyodor Pavlov-Andrievich. Then she entered the VGIK at the scriptwriting department (course of A.Ya. Stepanov and N.A. Fokina). But VGIK seemed to her a little, so immediately after receiving her first higher education, Katya entered GITIS (RATI) to direct. The course leader was Leonid Kheifets, and Katya's fellow students were Nina Chusova and Pavel Derevyanko.
While still a student at GITIS, together with the English director John Adams, Katya staged the musical "Tomorrow Land" on the stage of the New Opera Theater. This work became an invitation ticket for the aspiring director to the theatrical stage in London - soon Katya staged several performances on the stage of the Royal Court Theater, including the play of her own composition "Pavlov's Dog" .
Returning to Moscow, Katya organized her own entreprise. With the performances "The Flying House" and "The Pit" (in the latter, Alexey Panin and Katya herself played), she traveled half the country. Then there was work in France. As a theater director, Katya staged four plays by the playwright Vadim Levanov at the theater in the city of Nancy.
In 2001, commissioned by TV-6, Katya filmed a documentary about an insane asylum. But when the film was ready, the channel was closed. The play and the impressions of a real psychiatric hospital later formed the basis for the film "Pavlov's Dog" with Elena Lyadova in the title role ("Space as a Premonition"), which won the prize for the best debut at the Vyborg festival "Window to Europe", the grand prize for the best fiction film, the Guild of Film Critics Prize at the Stalker Moscow Festival and other awards.
Performances based on her plays were staged on the stages of the Russian House theaters and at the Center for Drama and Directing directed by Alexei Kazantsev and Mikhail Roshchin.
As an actress, Yekaterina Shagalova starred in Kirill Serebrennikov's TV series "Rostov-papa". (By the way, in this film the song of Katya's composition is performed by her.) She was a screenwriter of the series "Viola Tarakanova". In general, she did a lot of things by her 30 years. And he is not going to slow down.
