With the flow 2008

Movie, 1 film, Duration: 0:26:35

The term emigration in the explanatory dictionary, we find the following explanation - from the Latin emigro - evicted, leaving the citizens of his country to another country for permanent residence, or a more or less long-term political, economic and other reasons. The emigrants and emigration have been and probably always will be an integral part of any political regime, the regime of government. This process shows the interpenetration of ethnic groups, cultures, traditions, problems, which obviously can not be resolved, being permanently confined to one land, the country, one city and way. Naturally, the vast space once the Russian Empire and then the Soviet Union, and now the Russian Federation, numerous peoples inhabiting these spaces and political storms that raged in these spaces in the twentieth century, have given many reasons to talk about such a concept as the Russian emigration. Moreover, in a global context. The film "Adrift" is not trying to understand and explain the origins and consequences of Russian emigration as a whole. We just show the lives of some Russian emigres living in a small town in Florida.

RUSSIAN PAINTING IN THE BACKGROUND OF EMILIA-ROMAGNA 2006

Movie, 1 film, Duration: 0:26:53

In the province of Emilia-Romagna, not far from the small town of San Pietro in Casale, in an endless cornfield there is a house. This typical old Italian house houses one of the most significant collections of modern Russian painting in Italy. The creator of this collection is an ordinary Italian businessman Pierluigi Selmi, who has nothing to do with art by occupation. Several years ago, having arrived in Moscow and visited an exhibition of paintings by modern Russian artists, Pierluigi unexpectedly for himself fell in love with art. Since then, he has not only bought works by Russian artists for his collection. He regularly organizes exhibitions and vernissages of works by Russian artists, and also invites them and their families to his place to introduce them to Italy. Thus, Mr. Selmi's love for Russian art has given Italians the opportunity to get acquainted not only with painting, but also with artists from Russia. And for Russian artists, this became not only a pleasant acquaintance with contemporary Italian colleagues, but also a kind of school (it was not without reason that the tsarist government gave gold medalists of the Academy of Arts a stipend to continue their studies in Italy), and an opportunity to personally appreciate the full scale and beauty of Italian art.

This connection of generations and traditions creates that boundless space from Vologda to the White Sea, and creates the Russian Thebaid.
