Alexander Sokurov's spellbinding masterpiece RUSSIAN ARK is a multi-award winning film consisting of one unbroken camera shot that moves through St. Petersburg's Hermitage Museum. It’s a staggering work of art, an impressive technical feat that is also cinematic poetry of the first order. An extraordinary film, one that, like the museum itself, captures and shows three centuries of Russian culture and history in all its beauty, confusion, terror and majesty. 2002 by Hermitage Bridge Studio, Egoli Tossell Film AG.
