There are several layers here so it's icky to troubleshoot. If you could show the raw file names we'd have something to go on. Do you get them displayed correctly at the terminal prompt with ls? If not, does it help if you pass them through iconv? I'd suggest you rename them to UTF8 (or mount the file system with some suitable file name charset option, if you can).

Code:
ls -l | iconf -f koi8r  # or -f cp1251
