Russian Resurrection Film Festival 2014
It is no doubt a difficult year to stage a Festival of Russian cinema. However this year, more than any other, the role the Russian Resurrection Festival plays is particularly important. It is through a varied and uncompromising presentation of Russian culture that we can provide audiences with the diversity of voices and ideas that are present in Russian cinema and society. It is through cultural engagement that we can foster dialogue. It is through cinema that we can reach a deeper understanding of Russia and enhance the conversation.
We’re into our 11th big year in Australia and heading across the seas to New Zealand for the first time. The big new films are all here in this year's program. We have art-house riveters, comedy box office hits, ultra-fantasies, a dose of heavy drama and something for the kids as well. In keeping with tradition, the old classics are back once again, this time celebrating Mosfilm’s 90 year Anniversary. A special thanks to Event Cinemas, ACMI and Rialto Cinemas for their support of Russian Resurrection. And to everyone associated with the festival we raise a shot of vodka, in anticipation of your ongoing support.
Let the Resurrection continue! The Russian Resurrection Team

Russian Resurrection is truly amazing event for everyone, not just Russians! Every year they show great movies! Can't wait for the next year's event!
Very interesting, great to celebrate Russian film making.
Given an indepth depth understanding of Russian culture.
My family and I have seen the movie Vasilisa and it was outstanding. The costumes were great and main actress played her part really well. I was a bit disappointed that my daughter couldn't watch it properly, because was too much blood and actions. We all know that the movie is about that time when was is happen, however I don't believe that we need that realistically.
However, the other movie Елки, was a truly pleasure to watch with my daughter. The movie is a kind of a fairy tail, but I know that some where deeply inside we all want the magic wil become a real, at least in a New eve nigh
Very enjoyable, thank you so much!
Quite good, although I get the feeling I would have enjoyed it more had I been a fan of historical drama.
