Description
Directory of World Cinema: Russia explores the sociopolitical impact of cinema from Russia and the former Soviet Union. From musicals to war movies, and animation to socialist realism, this volume examines how films addressed major social and political events of their time.
Introductory essays establish key players and situate important genres within their cultural and industrial milieus, while reviews and case studies analyze individual titles in considerable depth. For film scholars or those interested in learning more about Russian cinema, Directory of World Cinema: Russia provides a comprehensive companion to the subject.
