Orphanages in Russia

[Irina Rodimtseva]

Film Strannye Vzroslye, 1975, director  Arkadiy Michkovsky, with Lev Durov, 
Zinoviy Gerdt, Alexander Demianenko. It's about adoption more than about 
life in an orphanage, but it's a great example of Soviet melodrama.

Hello Seelangs Community,

I've recently started research on orphanages in Russia (Soviet, particularly 
the Gorbachev era, and Post-Soviet), and was wondering if anyone could 
recommend some artistic films and/or literature that are concerned with this 
topic. In fact, informational literature would also be helpful. I'd like to 
learn about how they have functioned during the Soviet Union and how they 
have evolved to the present. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
