This is an account of Soviet documentary output during the years
between the "Great October Socialist Revolution" and the "Great
Patriotic War". Graeme Roberts re-views the examples of Soviet, and
world, non-fiction cinema, like "The Man With the Movie Camera" and
"The Fall of the Romanovs", and uncovers many intriguing films. He
discusses the careers of the men and women who made them, including
Vertov, Shub, Medvedkin and Karmen, and investigates the problems
of analysis and context, offering insights into that context. The
text demonstrates how, through looking as the history of Soviet
non-fiction film, it becomes possible to gain insight into the
agencies that shaped Soviet culture and history under Stalinist
regime into and beyond the 1930s.
