Morning Highway(1989)

Morning Highway is a Russian thriller that opens with a catastrophic collision between a red Lada and a white Mercedes, a moment revisited throughout the film. Taxi driver Anton Klyamin accepts a job transporting condensed milk cans into the mountains. He picks up a passenger carrying a gravestone, but the journey takes a dark turn when their vehicle crashes into a ravine. As the cargo scatters, a damaged can splits open—revealing that Anton has unknowingly been hauling drugs, not dairy products. What follows is a tense descent into danger as Anton grapples with the consequences of his seemingly innocent decision and the forces now pursuing him.
