We (1980)

01/01/1980

Overview

A slow procession on May 9th, 1980. ”Victory Day”. A military parade is marching, a forest of red flags, veterans in suits covered with medals are laying flowers at the foot of the Soviet monuments. The usual Soviet propagandist spectacle. Barysas’s response to the system – and the film that got him suspended for a year from the Society of amateur filmmakers for transgressing the rules on amoral, lewd content.
