Description
The Canadian Premiere of Mikhail Kalik’s Goodbye, Boys! (Mosfilm, 1964; in Russian with English subtitles) will offer a beautiful coming-of-age story of three friends in a small seaside town at the onset of World War II. Due to the controversial topics raised in the film—such as the Stalinist Soviet Union in the late 1930s and during World War II (including the Holocaust)—this film remained censored until the early 1990s. Olga Gershenson, a scholar of Soviet-Jewish film, will introduce the film and will lead a discussion after the screening.
