Film Series - "The Children Of Russia"
"The Children of Russia” – is a Spanish documentary on lives and destinies of sons and daughters of Spanish Republican fighters, who were evacuated to the Soviet Union. That was intended as a temporary escape from bombing and privation. But Franco's victory, the German invasion of the USSR and Stalinism conspired to keep the kids there for 20 years or more, some never returned, while others started over yet again in Cuba.
For this movie we have a special guest – Dr. Norberto Mínguez-Arranz, Professor of Film Studies at the University Complutense of Madrid, Spain.
