The Feat
Feliks Sobolev / Ukraine / 1975 / International Premiere / 8 min.
synopsis
One photograph and unsettling letters, underscored by a band of abstract images, create Sobolev’s most striking film. A portrait of an unknown soldier, published in the memoirs of Marshall Zhukov, provoked a massive response in readers. In the dour face covered in dust, many recognized their sons, fathers, brothers. Sobolev brings the face described in the letters to life and each allows us to experience the transformation of his perception. By zooming in or multiplying a single photo, he manages to speak about the fate of an entire nation.more about film
