Moscow Elegy (Region 1) - Sokurov, Alexander
Releasedatum: 19 december 2006
Originally produced to mark the 50th birthday of Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky, Alexander Sokurov's film focuses on Tarkovsky's absence from the then-Soviet Union and meditates on what he left behind. Using thematically representative scenes from Tarkovsky's films, juxtaposed against political events in the Soviet Union, Sokurov captures the great director's struggle between personal expression and state-supported suppression. This stunning documentary also includes footage from Tarkovsky's funeral. "Tarkovsky has been the subject of many films, but few are as revealing as Sokurov's elegiac work" (Museum of Modern Art).
