Анна Ахматова, реквием. Anna Akhmatova, Requiem

In her seminal poem, Akhmatova narrates the atrocities and injustices of war and the Stalin era. But she does so with a voice from deep within the situation. The lyrical take on the Don river turns dark, as the poem reveals a gripping secret that affects our relationship to the narrator directly. excerpt from The Sprawl (Propaganda About Propaganda) directed by Metahaven text: Requiem by Anna Akhmatova director of photography: Remko Schnorr music by Kuedo additional photography by Meta
