Radov

Journalist and producer Alexander Radov, too, probably would never have come out of the shadows if he hadn't been one of the first to be taken by the coronavirus. This talking name would have remained in the credits of several hundred issues of the program "More than Love" and other first-class documentaries. But what is she talking about? Why the shock of his sudden departure?

Furtively About Kira

In VGIK, she was a student of the workshop of Sergei Gerasimov and Tamara Makarova, and watched Godard's "Last Breath" and thought, nothing more is needed. Everything is already there. But, in the end, without her, without her 22 films, the history of world cinema would be incomplete. In our country, her name has become one of the undisputed geniuses-Tarkovsky, Parajanov, Herman, Sokurov. The brilliant Kira Muratova looks at a person with irony, as if from a distance and from above, as if at a funny puppet theater, but her gaze is full of sympathy. It divides artists into two categories: preachers and gamblers. Of course, he considers himself one of the latter. Chance is her muse. Improvisation is a feature of the method. And what is life but improvisation? In contrast to Rene Clair with his phrase " my film is ready. It remains only to remove it", goes to the set, opening up to life, the game of chance.

Influxes. Love

Grigory Pomerantz did all the war from 1941 to 1945, roamed the Stalingrad circle, was in all the hottest battles, went all the way to Berlin. His observations and reflections on the meaning of war and man caught in the war are shocking. Nobody had thought of this way in the Great Patriotic War.

The Movie’s Over

It's time now just to live. Just love each other with the highest power of pure feelings. This movie started many years ago.

Back then, Lena, mother of three, living Russian soul, divorced the father of her kids Yura and married a murderer sentenced to life imprisonment. What was it?
