2014 ASEEES panel on the Russian cinema of the 90s

[Daria Shembel]

Dear Colleagues,
we are putting together a panel on the cinema of the 90s. So far we have two speakers, and looking for one more speaker, chair, and a discussant (it could be a roundtable too). Here is a brief description:
The Russian Cinema of the 1990s demands exhumation and re-evaluation. This was an era of the birth of a new cinematic language, of new production structures and unregulated markets. The period appeared to signal the death of a national cinema with low audience figures and an absence of ideological structures or a meaningful commercial imperative. It was a time that saw an emergence of co-productions, the first appearance of sequels, the uncensored re-evaluations of the glorious past and an out-of-control arthouse. The roundtable explores the various trends of 1990s cinema and its impact on the present.
 
Daria Shembel will speak on the experimental cinema of the 90s (Yevgeny Yufit, among others)

Gregory Dolgopolov will speak on the serialized films of the 90s
