Alla Boychenko: “In the video “Maryam” there are only female images...”

Latest Premieres

December 5 clip will be released Alla Boychenko for the song "Maryam"

Last time we told and showed you how was the first day of shooting, well, today, let's talk about the final day of filming this magical video ...

The picturesque landscapes of the Khulamo-Bezengi district, where the hut stands in which the ancestor of Balkarian poetry and the founder of the Balkarian language, Kyazim Mechiyev once lived, were chosen as locations for the video. It was there that the director and scriptwriter Magomed Kumykov decided to make a story of a mountain girl named Maryam ...

“By the second day, the main part of the video had already been filmed,” explains Alla, “so we got it done much faster. The task was to recreate the story of the already matured Maryam. The heroine herself is in the frame, and her children are around her. All the characters in this part are already matured. Viewers will then notice that only female faces, only actresses, are involved in the scenes. The fact that there are no men there was intentional. Because we are pursuing such a line - a story about a collective female image, which we called Maryam.

The name is key, as this is the name of the song, and the name of the album in support of which the clip is released, as well as the name of my mother. I dedicate the project to my parents. ”

As an actress, Alla Boychenko on this day was again subjected to the test of cold. Although the weather from the very beginning favored the team, the video director, in search of the most suitable locations, was not looking for easy ways ...

“In a picturesque high-altitude location, we had to film the first part of my solo part, the choreographic parts of the dancers, as well as our joint shots. This was the most pleasant part of the whole filming, because it was already warm and the sun was shining. I was so happy! I thought it would even be hot. But it was not there! - Alla laughs, - our extreme director Magomed took us to places where we had to dance in the thicket of the forest, in the wet grass. Once again my legs suffered from this! I was wearing a national costume and ichigi (women's dancing boots), thin, leather, which, naturally, allowed water and the cold of the damp earth to pass through. So again it wasn’t so sweet for me, but still better than the first day!”

During the shooting of the clip “Maryam” authentic national clothes were used.

Despite the obstacles posed by the ruthless weather that day, the clip was safely taken away. And the dancers, actors and the heroine herself perfectly coped with their tasks. Therefore, the singer and the whole team were very pleased with the result of the filming.

Now the clip is in the process of editing. The clip will premiere 5 December 2017 of the year.
