Films Russia – Russian and American Joint Ventures Flourish

In these days of political and commercial competition for world dominance, a renewed struggle has emerged between Russia and the United States. However, whilst the two superpowers are busy grappling for position on matters of energy, national defense, sovereignty, and concepts of democracy, there are private initiatives underway to bring these two great nations together. This is through the medium of creativity and specifically, joint efforts in the creation of films about common issues to the people of both countries.

Recently completed, and now internationally released, the film entitled Captivity (directed by Roland Joffe, A RAMCO production, Serge Konov “The Konov Principle”) was just such a venture. Filmed entirely in Moscow at Mosfilm, the work was a great collaboration between the two film interests of Hollywood and Moscow, and indeed, between Russians and Americans.

A new film under production from the same group, entitled Finding t.A.T.u. is a work that tackles issues facing the youth in both countries, and indeed, in most countries around the world. The problems surrounding coming of age and the peer pressure concerning sex, drugs and individual identity are exhaustively examined in this film.

Finding t.A.T.u. is the story of a lonely American girl who finds herself in Moscow, and befriends another lonely girl on the internet. They share a common bond through the music and lyrics of singing duo t.A.T.u (a gay or bisexual singing duo), and meet in person to attend a t.A.T.u concert.
