“This is the director’s first film that was not given a distribution certificate in Russia. Officials from the Ministry of Culture referred to “other cases determined by law.” In fact, they refused without explanation. Now each of you has the opportunity to try to understand why such a decision was made and how adequate it is,” says Sobchak’s “Bloody Lady” telegram channel.

The message also clarifies that before the online premiere on November 19, a private screening of the film was held in Moscow, which was attended by the director himself, as well as Konstantin Bogomolov, Andrey Kolesnikov, Konstantin Ernst, Andrey Smirnov and others. The discussion that took place during the screening is also available online.

“The Tale” is a fantastic interpretation of the events of the Second World War, where images of Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, cut out from newsreels, play an important role.
