kind wolf is incapable of meanness. They have a lot of adventures ahead. It turned out that catching Little Red Riding Hood is not so easy.

Personal life
For the first time Dmitry Iosifov saw Natalya at the Institute of Steel and Alloys. The young man brought his brother's documents to the admissions office. And Natalya was going to go there.

Unpleasant story
In 1995, when Dmitry Iosifov moved to Moscow, his Belarusian passport stamped that he had left for permanent residence. After that, our hero flew to Bombay to shoot. At the airport, he was stopped by border guards and said that they could not release him with such a stamp. They advised to contact the Belarusian embassy so that they would give him some kind of certificate. But the official sitting in the embassy simply tore his passport right in front of Dmitry. Since then, the actor Belarusian no longer feels himself.
