I DON'T BELIEVE IN ANARCHY
Dir. Natalia Chumakova & Anna Tsyrlina, 2014
Russia, 78 min.
In Russian with English subtitles.
In the 1980s, Siberian punk band GrOb (Grazhdanskaya Oborona = Civil Defense) and its charismatic frontman Yegor Letov gathered a cult following for their radical lyrics, abrasive sound and their non-conformist attitude. By using rough archival footage and interviews with Letov’s contemporaries, I Don’t Believe in Anarchy captures the energy of the apocalyptic end days of the Soviet empire. The film contains elements of both biographical fact and cinematic fiction, and sets out on a mythical journey between the concrete and the imaginary. A filmic portrait of a transgressive band and its elusive leader that goes beyond the mere attribute of ”punk”.
