Video From Russia: The People Speak

1984-85, 53:10 min, color, sound

Video from Russia: The People Speak documents the 1984-85 Journey for Peace through Russia. Devyatkin shot in six cities, interviewing people on life in Russia and their opinions of America. Produced during a period when relations between the United States and the former Soviet Union were at a low, this is a remarkable barometer of public opinion and the misconceptions existing on both sides of the Cold War.
