From April 21 to 30 we will be installing new works in some parts of open storage. We recommend you visit during a mediated tour.
The first ever book on the cinema of Yakutia includes interviews with people who work in Yakut film—directors, screenwriters, and curators—and articles on the culture of Sakha (or Yakutia).
The collection of texts compiled by documentary maker Vladimir Kocharyan covers the emergence of Yakut cinema, the paths of its development, and its influence on the development of the Yakut identity.
Vladimir Kocharyan is a documentary film maker and curator. He was born and grew up in Yakutia in the family of an Armenian father and a Sakha mother. He worked as a creative producer at Lendoc Studio of Documentary Film and the executive director of the journal Iskusstvo kino. Currently he is curator of the Golden Apricot International Film Festival and conducts film research. In 2024, he will release his documentary Yakut Cinema: Between Different Worlds.
