Description:
The monthly series of documentary films on Central and Eastern Europe continues with ‘The Woman with the Five Elephants’. Join us for the screening followed by a discussion.
THE WOMAN WITH FIVE ELEPHANTS
Vadim Jendreyko’s film introduces one of the most renowned translators of Russian literature. The “five elephants” are Dostoevsky’s major novels that Svetlana Geier translated into German over the span of many years. While sharing her fascinating life story from Soviet and later, Nazi occupied Ukraine to her emigration to Germany, Geier poetically reflects on language and the art of translation.
