THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Russia 88 is a 2009 Russian mockumentary directed by Pavel Bardin about neo-nazi skinheads. In the film, members of a gang called Russia 88 are filming propaganda videos to post on the Internet. After a while, they become accustomed to the camera and stop paying attention to it. The leader of the gang, Spike, discovers that his sister is dating a Southern Caucasian man. This family drama develops into a tragedy.
