What It's About
Spoiler-free. Read the analysis below for the full argument.
Documentary film explores the development of Russian propaganda in cinematography and its impact on Russian society. The author tells the story of modern Russia, using footage from popular Russian feature films and series, mixing them with informative Russian content (news, political talk shows, surveys of Russians on the street, and interviews of Russian cinematographers). In his research film, Kornii comes to a terrible conclusion - Russian feature cinema is absolute propaganda of war, xenophobia, and chauvinism, not only concerning Ukraine but also the other peoples (Georgians, Tajiks, Americans, Jews, etc.) and culture in Russia is not «out of politics.»
