Kino-glaz (1924)

 Alternative spelling of the title: Kinoglaz

English title: Kino Eye

Documentary set in the Soviet Union. It mostly centers on the so-called Pioneers, who were children who served the Soviet regime mostly by spreading government propaganda and health campaigns and doing charity work; there are segments with other themes, .e.g., a depiction of a lunatic asylum, etc.

Mildly interesting documentary with some avant-garde affectations which consist in playing some sequences in reverse. The asylum segment is probably the most curious one.

Rating: 43
