Description
Khas Push, one of the first major films produced by the Soviet Armenian film studios, was billed as a non-exotic, non-Orientalist, Marxist vision of class struggle in Western Asia.
Sergei Kapterev specializes in the stylistic, intellectual and political interaction between American and Soviet cinema, and is presently writing a monograph on this topic.
