The Other Russians
Mayram Yusupova
Russia ï 2006 ï 52 mins
World Premiere

The Other Russians depicts the- often forced- departure of ethnic Russians from those Republics of the former Soviet Union in which they formed a minority.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn characterised it as ́the problem of national humiliationî, and was deeply saddened that the Russian government could treat 25 million Russians returning from former republics as unwelcome emigrants.

This film sets out to represent the history of the ́non Russianî Russians in their accounts of this time- despite the continued silence of the Russian government and the governments of the independent former Soviet Central Asian states from which they were driven into exile.
