This is the latest Russian short film proving that the ‘parallel cinema’ movement in Russia still exists. Parallel cinema, or the ‘new avant-garde’ aims to offer an alternative to Mosfilm and Lenfilm productions. Like the Russian avant-garde of the twenties, Birmingham Ornament deals with symbols and metaphors.
