This course examines how Russian cinema, through the films of Eisenstein and Vertov to Tarkovskii, Mikhalkov and Sokurov, have used biographical and historical films to construct or contest views of the past and a coherent sense of common identity and purpose. Students acquire key concepts for the analysis of filmic treatments of memory and history, enabling them to examine representations of Russian history paying particular attention to twentieth century Russia's traumatic turning points.
