The Automobile Gains in Reliability (1974)

The Automobile Gains in Reliability (1974)

Documentary
Release Date: 1974, June 12
Directors: Aleksandr Sokurov
Countries: Soviet Union
Production: Gorky Film Studios

Overview:

This film was created by Sokurov before or during his VGIK student years for the regional TV of Gorki. He does not consider it a part of his filmography. For its creators, it was just a TV program, and the people who worked on it most often were being given no distinction in the credits. This document of the very origins of Sokurov gives us a notion of his "pre-stylistic" period, where the personality of the future great filmmaker reveals itself in spite of means and circumstances.
