520 _aFrom case cover: An absorbing portrait of one of the most colorful and revered figures in world cinema, PARADJANOV: A REQUIEM offers an affectionate and insightful look at the tumultuous career of the late Segei Paradjanov -- artist, dissident, romantic and iconoclast. From his early years as a protege of silent film legends Dovzhenko and Eisenstein, PARADJANOV charts the evolution of the controversial director's artistry, which culminated in the creation of brilliant, hallucinatory film fantasies of Ukrainian poetry and folk legends. rather than being celebrated for this mesmerizing work, the Armenian director was branded a "surrealist" by Soviet authorities and imprisoned for his artistic and intellectual challenges to reigning dogma of socialist realism. Rare, extensive interviews with the outspoken director are laced with clips from Paradjanov's filmic seductions of the eye and imagination, including ASHIK KERIB, THE LEGEND OF SURAM FORTRESS< SHADOWS OF FORGOTTEN ANCESTORS. Scenes from the director's earlier films, unavailable in the west (such as ANDRIESH, THE FIRST LAD, UKRAINIAN RHAPSODY), can be seen for the first time. Drawings, photographs and fragments of uncompleted films coalesce to make PARADJANOV: A REQUIEM a revealing account of an unforgettable artist.
_bFrom IMDb: The film shows the unique world of artist Sergei Parajanov, whose brilliant images in films and collages aroused the suspicion of Soviet authorities.
