Abstract

First of all, I must say that it was a great honor and privilege to receive the ORCA award and the opportunity to set off on my own academic journey. I was able to work with two of my greatest loves—film and Russia. In the journey, however, I also had to deal with the darker sides of their characters—those of bureaucracy and escapist entertainment.
