Trying to write something about the movie couple of days after I saw it only to realize I completely forgotten everything. I guess this is not the best recommendation.

A fascinating compendium of old Soviet propaganda broadcasts which presented the best face possible of a relentlessly optimistic world. The audience are all in on the joke––that the narrative is disingenuous throughout––but there is nonetheless genuine joy and art to be seen. A fluid interrogation of one's understanding of history that recalls another great archive documentary, The Autobiography of Nicolae Ceausescu.

Moving archive images depicting vividly the lives of a bygone era, the ideology of a generation. The world represented seemed so victorious and glorious, where every problem had a solution, where the enthusiam was shared. We all know the irony and the tragedy.

A tender look behind the Iron Curtain, through the gauze of propaganda.

A minor disappoinment, maybe. But Loznitsa is always rewarding in some way.
