Russia’s official entry for this year’s international feature Academy Award is a film about Soviet forces massacring their own people a true 1962 crime that was covered up for a good three decades afterward.
So, things have changed, as “Dear Comrades!” shows us with meticulous historical re-creation, searing anger and devastating pain. But it does so at a time when Russians across that vast nation are protesting in support of imprisoned opposition leader Alexei Navalny, and a month after a mob attacked the U.S. Capitol, which makes the film’s scenes of angry rioters threatening bureaucrats and trashing government buildings look all too recent even despite the film being in ’60s-style, square-framed black-and-white.
