"What a Drama!" (The Drama) is a comedy from A24 studio, which produces perhaps some of the boldest and most unconventional films in contemporary mainstream cinema. Top Hollywood actors Zendaya and Robert Pattinson play Emma and Charlie, a young couple just days away from their wedding. But then Charlie learns something very unexpected about Emma, and a real drama unfolds in their lives.
The director of photography for this film is 33-year-old Arseni Khachaturan, who was born and raised in Minsk. He managed to study for two years at the Belarusian Academy of Arts before moving to the USA.
