Anna: 6–18 or ({{langx|ru|Анна: от 6 до 18| Anna ot 6 do 18}}) is a documentary film by director Nikita Mikhalkov, which was shot during a period of thirteen years, from 1980 to 1993. The main heroine of the film is Anna, the eldest daughter of Mikhalkov. Anna herself has repeatedly said that she strongly disliked the picture, explaining that she considers it a "dissection of her private life" and "exhibitionism of the soul".{{cite web|url=http://www.1tv.ru/sprojects_edition/si5711/fi13111|title=На ночь глядя.

Over the years of her life (from 6 to 18 years) daughter of film director Anna answers the same questions about her father.

Through the prism of Anna's responses many key events are represented: the death of General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev, Yuri Andropov, Konstantin Chernenko, the restructuring, collapse of the Soviet Union, and the rise of Yeltsinism.
