NB: This event will be in Russian only and no translation will be provided.
We are delighted to welcome Anton Dolin @critic_dolin, one of the most prominent voices in contemporary Russian film criticism. Dolin is a film critic, journalist, writer, and lecturer, known for his thoughtful and often provocative reflections on cinema’s relationship with society, culture, and politics.
He served as the editor-in-chief of Iskusstvo Kino (The Art of Cinema), Russia’s oldest and most influential film magazine, and has been a regular contributor to major media outlets including Radio Mayak, Echo of Moscow, and Meduza.
In conversation with Artemii Levkoy @comrade.matthiola, Dolin will discuss how Russian films have portrayed morally complex, “bad” heroes — from Balabanov’s Brother to the recent phenomenon The Boy’s Word — and what these characters reveal about post-Soviet identity and values.
📍 St Edmund Hall, Doctorow Hall
