Life

Oleksandr Rodnyanskyj was born into a family of filmmakers. His grandfather, the screenwriter Zinovi Rodnjanskyj, was the editor-in-chief of the documentary film studio; his father, Jefim Friedman, was the chief engineer, and his mother, Larissa Rodnjanskaj , ran the “Kontakt” film studio of the Association of Filmmakers of Ukraine.

Oleksandr Rodnjanskyj studied film directing with Felix Sobolew at the Kiev National Karpenko-Karyj University for Theater, Film and Television. In 1983 he joined the “Kiewnautschfilm” (Kiev Science Film Studio) as a film director. Rodnjanskyj's documentaries received numerous Russian and international awards, such as B.

After his return to Ukraine, Rodnjanskyj founded the first independent Ukrainian-language television channel "1 + 1" in 1995 on the basis of the former state "First Channel". On “1 + 1”, new genres and formats were presented for the first time in the history of Ukrainian television. For example, the international TV magazine “Telemania”, the political talk show “Tabu”, the political debate format “5 against 5” and the humorous talk show “SV-Show”. The station showed films by Martin Scorsese , Sergio Leone , Peter Greenaway , Jim Jarmusch and other classics as well as the American series "Dynasty", "Melrose Place", "Beverly Hills 90210" and "Nash Bridges", and only a few months after the start of the station, the ratings for viewers aged four and over rose to over 35%. Shortly thereafter, the game show “The First Million” - the Ukrainian version of “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” And the show “Dance with the Stars" started.

In 1997 Rodnjanskyj sold 30% of the station for 22 million US dollars to Central European Media Enterprises.
