DESCRIPTION

Zvenigora, or Zvenyhora (Russian: Звeнигopа) is a Soviet 1928 silent film by Ukrainian director Alexander Dovzhenko.Regarded as a silent revolutionary epic, Dovzhenko's initial film in his "Ukraine Trilogy" (along with Arsenal and Earth) is almost religious in its tone, relating a millennium of Ukrainian history through the story of an old man who tells his grandson about a treasure buried in a mountain. Although Dovzhenko referred to Zvenigora as his "party membership card," it is full of Ukrainian myth, lore and superstition. The magical recurrences and parallels used in the storytelling also invites comparisons to Nikolai Gogol. Dovzhenko's "Ukraine Trilogy" is seen by many as three of the greatest films ever made.
