Miss Gulag
Through the prism of a beauty pageant staged by female inmates of a Siberian prison camp emerges a complex narrative of the lives of the first generation of women to come of age in Post-Soviet Russia. Since its World Premiere at the Berlin Film Festival, Miss Gulag has screened at over 30 international film festivals and been broadcast globally. Called “compelling and original” (Variety), “eye-opening” (ET), and “a smashing debut by a young documentarian who discovers a unique way to investigate contemporary Russian society” (Hollywood Reporter), Miss Gulag has earned critical acclaim and devoted fans worldwide.
