Multiple Showings: July 18, 2008 | 7:00 PM July 19, 2008 | 7:00 PM Opera legend Galina Vishnevskaya gives a monumental performance as Alexandra’s title character, an elderly—but far from frail—woman who visits her grandson stationed among the bored, weary troops at a desolate military outpost in Chechnya. The presence and perspective of this grandmother, a force of nature stronger than the youthful soldiers around her, allows the film to transcend its specifics and engage powerfully with the eternal themes of conflict, nationhood, and humanity. With this moving portrait of a memorable woman, director Alexander Sokurov (Russian Ark, Mother and Son) reconfirms why he is one of the titans of contemporary Russian—and world—cinema. (92 mins., 35mm)

Columbus in Focus
Where: Wexner Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University
Date: 2007-09-25 20:00:00
Type:
Produced by Ohio State students, Columbus in Focus examines the history of film production at the university and in the city, from the heyday of OSU’s Department of Photography and Cinema as one of the strongest programs in the country, through the department’s disbanding, and up to the present, when filmmaking is enjoying a campus resurgence through endeavors like Reel Buckeye Productions, a student-organized production effort inspired in part by HBO's Project Greenlight. The film was originally intended to be a “behind-the-scenes” documentary chronicling the production of 3 Easy Payments, Reel Buckeye’s first film project, in 2006. It expanded to explore not only filmmaking at OSU but the state of Columbus’s filmmaking scene and the new possibilities presented by digital video and the Internet. (75 mins., video)
