Tatyana Skabard

A program made for Kultura on the life and career of Larisa Shepitko.

Who are we? What do we know about ourselves? How do we differ from animals? Creativity! That's the only thing that makes us human. Only creativity is a sign of human nature.

Nikolai Obukhovich is one of the most non-trivial and subtle non-fiction authors in the history of Soviet and Russian cinema. At the same time, his paintings were rarely shown on television and in cinemas they were practically not shown. But among the Leningrad and Moscow intelligentsia, Obukhovich's tapes have always aroused genuine interest, thanks to a special look at seemingly well-established, trivial things and concepts.

A wreath of movie sets dedicated to the love of music and composer Mikael Tariverdiev.

Senya is a brown bear cub with an amazing and terrible fate. Classical literature has long revealed to us that such destinies do not happen only to people. But, of course, Tatiana Skabard's new film is still about us: about our cruelty and indifference, about bloody entertainment involving animals, which are arranged not by medieval barons, but by our neighbors, and about how our other contemporaries, at the risk of life and health, regardless of costs, save and treat birds and animals mutilated in these amusements.
