Films Without a Viewer. Ukrainian Filmmakers and Memory of the Neoliberal Turn in the Post-Soviet Space

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This chapter investigates how memory of the upheaval following the collapse of the Soviet Union is captured in retrospective Ukrainian feature films. We examine the agency films have had in the memory-forming process of the Ukrainian post-Soviet neoliberal turn by focusing on films produced in the Ukrainian language for a Ukrainian audience and funded by both state institutions and private entities. We suggest that Ukrainian cinema’s role in shaping shared images of the past can be better understood if consideration is given not only to the films’ content but also to the context of their production. The chapter outlines how a combination of structural and economic circumstances have directly influenced the analyzed cultural productions’ memory-making potential. We argue that Ukrainian films have not become media of memory of the post-Soviet era because they have largely failed to reach an audience. As a consequence, members of the generation in Ukraine too young to have experienced the Soviet and the early post-Soviet period themselves are more likely to have their shared ideas of the past shaped by well-promoted foreign productions
