Kino-Eye introduces the filming strategies that would characterize the great Vertov masterpieces to follow. Advertised as a "cinema thing without script, without actors, without directors, without sets," Kino-Eye combines images planned or sought out by Vertov with images caught somewhat by accident. According to Yuri Tsivian, "There are two poles to the life which Vertov's Kino-Eye catches life off-guard. At one pole are people of the 'New' Russia: Soviet kids organized into Pioneer units (a non-gendered, politicized equivalent of the West's Boy and Girl Scouts). At the other pole are people exemplifying the 'Old' life — drunken peasant women dancing; a bunch of lunatics in a mental asylum (in keeping with then-widespread views, Vertov thought that mental illnesses had social causes); shady black market dealers; an addict sniffing cocaine, and the like. In the film, the heart of all evil is the market where small private traders (allowed under the New Economic Policy) sell their produce."
Kino-Pravda No. 15 will not be shown as we were unable to get them out of Russia. We apologize for the inconvenience.
