Logo: On a black background, we see a statue of a girl sitting and sewing (the statue is actually a decoration called "The Little Embroiderer"/"Маленькая вышивальщица"). The statue slowly rotates. "КИНОКОМПАНИЯ" and "FILM COMPANY" appear at the top (shaped like a circle) and "СТВ" appears on the bottom. A blue dot appears and glows between "КИНОКОМПАНИЯ" and "FILM COMPANY". The dot disappears after a while.
FX/SFX: The statue rotating, the words appearing, the dot glowing.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic orchestral piece, which is actually an excerpt of "Romance" from the "Lieutenant Kijé" suite by Sergei Prokofiev.
Availability: Seen on their movies of the period starting with Brother (1997). This logo last appeared on Dialogs (Диалоги) (2014). It was also supposedly seen on the 2022 theatrical re-release of Brother.
Editor's Note: None.
