You and I (Russian: Ты и я; also known by its working title, Finding t.A.T.u.) is a 2011 drama-film directed by Roland Joffé, an English-French film director who is known for his Oscar nominated movies The Killing Fields and The Mission, depicting a fictionalised version of real events adapted from the novel t.A.T.u. Come Back. The film features Mischa Barton, Anton Yelchin, Charlie Creed-Miles, Helena Mattsson, Alexander Kaluzhsky, Bronson Pinchot and Shantel VanSanten. The film is about a teenage girl, Lana, who moves from a rural town in Russia to Moscow, completely unaware that meeting an internet girlfriend, Janie, will result in a string of adventures. Indeed, in the capital at night, among the clubs and parties, all things are possible, from becoming a luxurious model, to waking up in the morning a pop star while she was only looking for true love.

Casting and filming began in May 2007, and it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2008. The film was released in the United States on January 31, 2012. Despite the film not being released to mainstream film critics, You and I received mixed reviews from film critics.

Synopsis

The film is about Janie Sawyer, an American teenager who is forced to live in Moscow because of her father's job. Janie is trying to escape her lonely life in Moscow through her deep love of music and the internet. Janie and Lana Starkova meet on a fansite for the pop-band t.A.T.u. Trapped in a small Russian town, Lana wants desperately nothing more than to flee her mundane life causing the two girls to develop an instant connection through their love of t.A.T.u.'s music. The two girls adapt one of Lana's poems into a song and post it on the internet. t.A.T.u.'s manager hears the song being played by a corrupt music producer and he loves it. He later contacts the girls, instead of the producer, hoping they will allow t.A.T.u. to record the song without the producer. Janie and Lana's relationship then becomes the catalyst for a series of adventures through both the rock bottom and highlights of Moscow's society.

Meanwhile, May's lesbian colleague Polly begins to flirt with May. One day while feeling especially low, May remarks that Polly has a beautiful neck.
