Ministry has compiled a catalog of about 100 movies suitable for school-aged students
The Ministry of Education and the Presidential Council for Culture and Arts have recently published a list of the 100 best Soviet and Russian art films suitable for screening in educational institutions. The list, released on May 13, offers a diverse range of cinematic works that span several decades.
The recommendations do not specify the frequency or duration of film showings, nor do they apply to the use of films in regular classroom settings. However, film clubs can be organized as part of the school curriculum, providing students with an engaging and educational experience.
The list includes a variety of films, such as "Peter the First" by Vladimir Petrov (1937), "Alexander Nevsky" (1938) and "Ivan the Terrible" (1944-1945) by Sergey Eisenstein, "The Cranes Are Flying" by Mikhail Kalatozov (1957), "Pokrovskiye Vorota" by Mikhail Kozakov (1982), "Officers" by Vladimir Rogovoy (1971), and more.
For older students, films like "Come and See" by Elem Klimov (1985) and "Optimistic Tragedy" by Samson Samsonov are suitable for children aged 14 and above, and 16 and above, respectively. Some films on the list, such as "My Sweet and Tender Beast" by Emil Lotyanu (1978) and "Ascent" by Larisa Shepitko (1976), are recommended for children aged 12 and above.
The list also includes contemporary classics like "Seventeen Moments of Spring" by Tatyana Liоznova, "Love and Pigeons" by Vladimir Menshov, "The Quiet Don" by Sergey Gerasimov, "Belarus Station" by Andrei Smirnov, "Dog's Heart" by Vladimir Bortko, "Solaris" by Andrei Tarkovsky, "Twenty Days Without War" by Aleksey German, "The Scarecrow" by Rolan Bykov, "Dewchata" by Yuri Chulyukin, and others.
It is important to note that the Ministry's recommendations do not alter the age ratings of the films on the list. The ministry also suggests using film clips from the list as illustrative and additional material for lessons.
However, the search results do not provide specific information about which contemporary Russian films were omitted from the list. Additionally, no information about potential funding or resources for organizing film clubs or discussion platforms is provided. Nor is there any mention of modern Russian films being added to the list.
Lastly, the ministry does not specify any restrictions on the films that can be shown during extracurricular activities. This means that schools have the freedom to choose films from the list that best suit their students' age ranges and educational goals. Discussion platforms for watching and discussing cinematic works can also be established to enhance the learning experience.
