Fantastic and phantasmagorical science-fiction, fantasy, horror, fairy-tales, surreal cinema and television from Russia and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe during the 'Soviet' and 'Eastern Bloc' era of global geo-politics, covering the period of 1924-1991.

We are often given the impression that films like 'Stalker' and 'Solaris' are the few exceptions to the steady diet of communist 'propaganda', film and television makers were compelled to produce; yet the vast majority of these films are completely at odds with this belief.

 This is an entire cinematic universe waiting to be discovered and it has hardly begun to be coherently mapped out in the English speaking world (though there are a number of books and articles on the net if you dig deep enough) and this is one basic attempt to gather some raw data: 

Any recommendations via email are very much welcome, particularly the more obscure films and television programmes that have yet to be translated.

Likewise, if you are from one of these countries and are interested in helping to translate any of these films into English, please get in touch as many of these deserve a far wider audience than they currently enjoy.

I am more than happy to go through the process of translating and making subtitles and give you all the help my time will allow: so no experience is needed, just a lot of time, effort and love for these films.
