VON SÄNGERN UND MÖRDERN
Germany 2016 – Director: Stefan Eberlein – Original language: Russian – Subtitles: English – Length: 87 min.
A penal colony in Russia where stagnation is enforced arbitrarily by the authorities. All that the thousands of prisoners here have to comfort them as they serve their time is singing in front of a mass audience. Stefan Eberlein gives them a voice – and breaks open the chains of their anonymity.
