Television Around the World. Russia
Description
Russian viewers of all ages are very fond of Zvezda, a channel dedicated to old-fashioned Soviet-era films and TV shows. With its ties to the military, Zvezda runs plenty of footage of tanks, but none of the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. By contrast, REN is an uncensored, independent channel that features controversial current affairs programs, and unlike the state-run stations, does not require the Kremlin's approval of its broadcast decisions. Speaking with journalists and media professionals, this film explores the broad scope of Russia's TV programming-which includes comedies, crime shows, and airings of the regular brawls that take place in its parliament-with a focus on the role of politics in its creation.
