His work enjoys great acclaim worldwide and he has been awarded numerous prizes including, most recently, the International Critics Prize at the Cannes Film Festival 2003, for his latest film Father and Son. He is also one of the leading filmmakers on the contemporary art circuit. His film Mother and Son was selected by Catherine David for the Documenta X in 1997; the Jeu de Paume in Paris, organized an exhibition about his documentary film works in summer 2001 and some of films form part of the permanent collections of museums such as the MOMA in New York and the MACBA in Barcelona.

ALEXANDER SOKUROV & HIS CINEMA OF SPIRITUAL OPPRESSION alexander sokurov His Cinema of Spiritual Oppression (A Reflection on the Film Mother and Son ). Sorry, your browser doesn t suppor Java. http://www.hal-pc.org/~questers/Sokurov.html
Extractions: Sorry, your browser doesn't suppor Java. (You can move the lens with your cursor.) Alexander Sokurov is a director, who possesses an enormous cinematic gift. It is, therefore, doubly regrettable that along with some high accomplishments, he has produced some low points as well. Films like "Save and Protect" and "Moloch" are downright embarrassments for a director of such high caliber (and "Russian Ark" is just too superficial to be taken seriously). Fortunately, he has more than made up for that with such remarkable films as "Man's Lonely Voice" and "Second Circle". However, his film "Mother and Son" can be considered to be the pinnacle of his output so far. Sokurov's style of filmmaking is often compared to that of Andrei Tarkovsky. However, Sokurov himself, while not resenting the comparison, does resist this linkage: "I would say that we had a very close friendship rather than collegial creative collaboration. I don't know why he liked what I was doing."

Extractions: A film about Eva Braun and Adolf Hitler directed by a Russian using Russian actors speaking dubbed German sounds rather implausible. But Alexander Sokurov is not an ordinary Russian director. Among his 30-plus credits as a director is a 10-minute montage-documentary titled Sonata For Hitler, made 20 years ago. On the making of Moloch he offered these comments: "These people, the people of power, turned their lives into theatre. Guided by a myth, they conceived and modified their lives, staged real mise en scène and subordinated their behaviour to rituals and ceremonies. This pattern is by no means unique, and Hitler was not exceptional. It's a common occurrance that grandiose shows driven by vanity end up in the dustbin of history." Of the three Russian stylists once named as "rightful heirs" to the art cinema of Andrei Tarkovsky - Ivan Dykhovichny, the late Alexander Kaidanovsky, and Alexander Sokurov - only Sokurov's cinema has survived the test of time. Always searching for new ways to employ the language of cinema, he probes the human experience through the eyes of a sceptic and pessimist. One meeting with Alexander Sokurov is all that's needed to feel that down deep he's a restless man, a film-maker who invites controversy by the very choice of his themes, an artist who will talk circles around the meaning of his films rather than offer any kind of direct answers that may come back later to haunt him.

Extractions: Masterpiece By Fred Camper Top Top I n one of my favorite jokes connecting Russian pessimism with a failure of imagination, two Russian fishermen catch a golden fish. It offers them three wishes if they'll spare its life. The first fisherman says, "I wish that the hold of the boat be filled with cases of vodka," and his wish is granted. The second says, "I wish that the entire ocean be turned into vodka," and they lower a bucket and start drinking. Then the fish reminds them that they have a third wish. They look at each other, scratch their heads, and the first says, "I guess we'll just take another case." Alexander Sokurov's 218-minute video, Confession , manages to elevate this theme to the level of art. Considered by many Russia's finest living director, he's created a madrigal to melancholy, a hymn to failure, in which an apparently gay naval commander lacks the courage to act on his desires. Set in the cramped space of a nondescript ship amid barren arctic snowscapes, it consists mostly of the sailors' repetitive actions and the commander's lugubrious narration. The few possibilities for happiness or meaning hinted at hardly offer convincing ways out of the gloom. Stan Brakhage includes a line from Louis Zukofsky's poem "A" "Raise grief to music" in his 1967 meditation on war, 23rd Psalm Branch . Sokurov may be said to have raised melancholy to music in
PÈRE ET FILS - Padre E Figlio Di Sokurov Mariella Minna propone una recensione del film di alexander sokurov. http://www.centraldocinema.it/Recensioni/Dic03/pere_et_fils.htm
Extractions: Regia: Alexander Sokurov Padre e figlio vivono in un appartamento allultimo piano che ha una finestra che affaccia sui tetti. Lassenza della madre ha fatto sì che tra i due si sviluppasse un rapporto forte ed esclusivo, che lambisce lomosessualità. Il figlio, infatti, rinuncia e perde lamore della giovane fidanzata in nome dellattaccamento paterno. Sarà larrivo di un altro ragazzo, alla ricerca del proprio padre perduto, a infrangere gli equilibri e a segnare il destino della relazione pericolosa. Un gioiello dal punto di vista estetico: la ricerca ossessiva dellinquadratura perfetta, i filtri che colorano lonirica fotografia, la recitazione che si affida più ai gesti e agli sguardi che allo scarno parlato. Unopera che si pone al di sopra delle tendenze e delle mode, per diventare eterna e sfidare laggressione del tempo. Mariella Minna

Extractions: Requiem: The Visionary Films Of Alexander Sokurov This retrospective was organized by James Quandt at the Cinematheque Ontario in collaboration with Jytte Jensen of the Film and Video Department, Museum of Modern Art, New York, with generous assistance from Alexei Jankowski, Studio Bereg, St. Petersburg. MOTHER AND SON (Mat i syn) March 8 (Friday) 7 pm Russian with English subtitles Mother and Son is a slow, soft, and sad poem about the last day of a woman weakened by disease, and about the loving son who cares for her in her remote cabin home. Formal elements converge to reinforce the elegiac tone: the whispering wind, crashing waves, sea-gull cries, and other natural sounds recall the glissandi of violins; the images, distorted by filming through painted glass panes, mirrors, and special lenses, are reminiscent of German Romantic painting; the pace of the film verges on stillness, as though fixing on the moment between life and death, consciousness and oblivion. In the triumphantly pre-Freudian universe of the film, the parent is a literal burden who is carried through the world by her son in a sort of reverse pieta. DAYS OF THE ECLIPSE (Dni zatmeniya) March 8 (Friday) 8:30 pm Directed by Alexander Sokurov
