Vera Glagoleva was born on January 31, 1956 in Moscow. She got her first big role by accident. Immediately after school, she was noticed by the cameraman of the film “To the End of the World...”. At the audition of an actor who was applying for main role, Glagoleva, who agreed to play along with him, were invited to play the main role by the film's director Rodion Nakhapetov.

Later Glagoleva married the director. After “To the End of the World...” followed by roles in his other films - “Enemies”, “Don’t Shoot White Swans”, “About You”. She also starred in Anatoly Efros’s film “Thursday and Never Again.”

Glagoleva's debut as a director took place in 1990. She directed the film “Broken Light” based on the script by Svetlana Grudovich. It was followed by other directorial works - the films “Order”, “Ferris Wheel”, “Casual Acquaintances”, “Two Women” and “One War”, for which she received the prize of the Monte Carlo Television Film Festival “Golden Nymph”, Grand Prix at the Moscow Premiere and Golden Phoenix film festivals, Grand Prix at the Viva Cinema of Russia! in St. Petersburg, Grand Prix and Audience Award at the Russian Film Festival in Honfleur and other awards.

The cause of death of the Honored Artist of Russia could be stomach cancer

“Even to transport a body from Russia, you must have in your hands large number documents before sending the body across the border. In such a bureaucratic country as Germany - and even more so, says an employee of one of the Moscow funeral homes. “First of all, it will be necessary to conduct an autopsy so that doctors can confirm death due to the disease. This document will need to be signed by law enforcement agencies“that they have no questions about the death of a citizen, even from another country.”

After this procedure, the main question is resolved - how to transport? In the case of Germany, there are two options - an airplane or a car. The funeral agency noted that in 90 percent of cases, relatives choose the second option. This is primarily due to the serious difference in price. On average in Moscow, they charge from 2,500 to 4,000 thousand euros for just one transportation from Germany. Transferring a body by plane is much more expensive - from 6,000 euros. In addition, to this we must add the employee’s services, as well as his travel allowances and flight tickets. The difference between the two methods is one - time. By car, transporting the body will take about three days, and by air no more than three hours, but there is practically no significant difference in the transportation itself.

“In both cases, the body of the deceased is placed in a special zinc container called a Euro-module. For additional safety of the body, it is not only treated with formaldehyde, but also covered on all sides with special formaldehyde pads. Such security measures guarantee the safety of the body for several days,” said the interlocutor at the funeral home.
