Dear Seelangers,
I wonder if any of you might be able to suggest films that are set, in whole
or in part, in the Russian-American community in New York? 
I'm especially interested in Sheepshead Bay and Brighton Beach.  I'm trying
to provide a visual and cultural sense of these communities for actors in a
production at Steppenwolf Theatre Company for which I am the dramaturg.
Films can be either in Russian or in English.
Many thanks in advance.
All best,
Dassia
