  • • THE NEW SAINT

    The New Saint is a film about Yevgeny Rodionov, an ordinary young Russian boy who fell in the first Chechen war after being taken prisoner and refusing to convert to Islam. He was proclaimed a martyr and many Russians found in Yevgeny their own unofficial saint.
    The life of Yevgeny’s mother underwent a radical change when her child ‘became’ a saint. By campaigning for his canonisation she keeps the memory of her son alive. The success of her mission is illustrated by the portrayal of Yevgeny’s image on icons throughout the country.
    Who is this holy soldier exactly and what makes him the perfect icon of Russia today?

    Produced by Volya Films

    • KRESTY, HOPE DIES LAST

    This documentary portraits the disturbing situation inside the psychiatric
    department of the ‘Kresty’ prison in Saint Petersburg. It gives a
    fascinating look at the life and the harsh conditions in the prison.
    Regardless of these conditions, the psychiatrists work hard to continue to
    treat their patients with respect.
    “ The scum of the population is gathered here”
    Despite the lack of fresh water and heating, the inmates keep hoping for a
    better future, but when psychiatry fails to relief their suffering, they
    turn to
    religion.
