'The Cranes are Flying' and Soviet Cinema

2020 · 19 min Documentary

Film scholar Ian Christie unpacks why 'The Cranes Are Flying' is such a landmark of Soviet cinema, breaking away as it did from decades of forcibly pro-state propaganda with its focus on individual tragedy and its ambivalence about the heroism of war.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

'The Cranes are Flying' and Soviet Cinema is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

Released in 2020, this film holds up just as well today. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
