Marina Goldovskaya: Documentary Film Retrospective

Over an illustrious career spanning nearly five decades, UCLA Professor Marina Goldovskaya has become the leading documentary chronicler of the wrenching changes that have gripped the Soviet Union and modern-day Russia beginning in the late 20th century. Goldovskaya’s adventuresome, continuing project to interpret these political and social upheavals has provided a wealth of images to Western audiences hungry for an understanding of Russia’s dramatic, still unfolding story. The Archive is pleased to partner with UCLA Center for European and Eurasian Studies in presenting a retrospective of key works from Goldovskaya’s filmography, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Soviet Union, and to welcome the filmmaker to these special evenings.
