Birgit Beumers is Reader in Russian at the University of Bristol, specializing in contemporary Russian culture. She is also the editor of the Studies in Russian and Soviet Cinema Journal, also published by Intellect.
A provocative and illuminating volume. Even seasoned Russian film
experts stand to learn something from this volume, whether because
it invited them to reevaluate their basic historiographical
assumptions or because it introduces them to a number of
under-the-radar films.

Peppered with high-quality film stills and questions to consider
while viewing, Directory of World Cinema: Russia encourages its
reader to hunt out lesser-known films and to revisit his/her
favourites.
