Part of Putin’s Russia: A 21st Century Film Mosaic & The New Genres: Video in the Internet Age
Saturday, June 30, 2018, 6:00 p.m.
Museum of the Moving Image - Bartos Screening Room

Dir. Dmitrii Kalashnikov. 2016, 67 mins. Digital projection. An audacious found footage document for the internet age, The Road Movie compiles material shot exclusively via the deluge of dashboard cameras that populate Russian roads. Amongst a mess of icy collisions in whiteout conditions and fiery wrecks, the windshield becomes a proscenium for everything from a comet crashing down to Earth, an epic forest fire, and angry motorists taking road rage to extreme new levels, all accompanied by consistently blasé commentary from our unseen drivers and passengers.
