- Summary:
- This Volume Offers insight into the development of Soviet film from a propaganda tool to a means of entertainment in the Stalin era; the rise of "dissident" arthouse cinema in the 1960s to the films of the glasnost era; and recent Russian blockbusters. Selected films represent both the classics of Russian and Soviet cinema as well as those that are part of Russia's cultural reference. The volume also covers national film industries of the former Soviet Union, including the greatest films and directors of Ukrainian, Kazakh, Georgian, and Armenian cinematography.
