Oleksandr Dovzhenko. The Contemplations After Life
We hear readings from Dovzhenko's diary and hear how the great suffering of the Ukrainian people caused him to move away from beauty for it's own sake to the search for truth, expressed in his two harrowing wartime documentaries. Stalin's 1944 banning of Dovzhenko's Ukraine in Flames screenplay and his subsequent exile to Moscow affected him greatly.
Director: Mikhailo Donets
Cast: Oleksandr Dovzhenko
