Movie Details

Title: Kino-Pravda No. 23: Radio Pravda

Release Date: 24 Mar 1925

Runtime: 20m

Genre: Documentary

Director: Kultkino, Goskino USSR

Production Companies: Kultkino, Goskino USSR

Overview: Dziga Vertov-directed Soviet newsreel covering: A peasant buys a receiver at the radio shop / Instructions to attach an antenna / A broadcast-station is developed / A concert is broadcast. Though only a third of this final issue of Kino-Pravda seems to survive, there still exists Aleksandr Bushkin’s time-lapse animation and the sequence in which, as Yuri Tsivian describes, “a cross-section of a photographically correct izba (Russian peasant’s log hut) is penetrated by schematically charted radio waves”—a testament to the magical properties and propagandistic uses of radio in reaching out to Russia’s distant peasantry.
