Russian Film Festival - Born In the USSR: 28 Up

If you're a fan of documentary films, then you probably know about the British "7Up" series in which the filmmaker revisits a group of individuals every seven years to see how their lives are progressing. The MSC Jordan Institute is screening a Russian interpretation of the concept. The first version of this series was filmed by director Sergey Miroshnichenko in 1990, just as the Soviet Union was crumbling and the Iron Curtain came crashing down.

See how the world has changed through the eyes of Stas and Dennis, Tanya, Almaz, Rita, Andrei, and Asya tomorrow night, Thursday, October 24th at 7pm in MSC2300A. Read more about the film here and here. Check out the trailer below.
