Guest Co-Hosts: Gianna D'Emilio, Alistair PittsWe continue our month of discussing Soviet Cinema with a look at Elem Klimov's Welcome, or No Trespassing (1964). It’s the story of a group of kids at a summer camp where one boy, Kostja Inockin (Viktor Kosykh), breaks from the pack and swims a little too far. He’s immediately expelled by Director Dynin (Evgeniy Evstigneev) but later Inockin returns.
Gianna D'Emilio and Alistair Pitts join Mike to discuss this fast-paced, whimsical bit of political allegory.
