Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This paper explores how contemporary Russian cinema frames wartime narratives to shape public perceptions of patriotism and national identity, with a specific focus on the ongoing war against Ukraine. By analyzing the recently released mini-series "20/22," this study examines the use of historical narrative, language, and visual tools in constructing a particular image of the war and its participants. The analysis will involve a close examination of the series' scripts, dialogues, and visual compositions. By focusing on these elements, the study will identify the strategies used to frame the war narrative and assess their effectiveness in shaping public perceptions.
