The Glasnost Film Festival is a 12-video collection featuring 22 Soviet documentary films produced
in the "Glasnost Era." Many of the films remain definitive and timeless documents of previously unexplored aspects of Soviet history and culture. All were produced originally on 35mm film and are subtitled in English. G 11-Adult

The Tailor, 50 min.
A sobering look at the spiritual void and disillusionment of middle-aged
Soviet adults, many of whom became aged before their time.
Early on Sunday , 16 min.
A wonderful portrait of old village
women, whose unpretentious observations about life, love and perestroika
evoke laughter and compassion.
