The Imperceptible Empire: Loznitsa's Vision of a Forgotten Era Sergei Loznitsa's latest film, Imperium , has been making waves at the Venice Film Festival with its mesmerizing collage of everyday life in 1970s Soviet Union.
On the surface, this documentary appears to be a nostalgic stroll through a bygone era, but scratch beneath and you'll find a more sinister undertone – one that speaks volumes about the nature of power and control.
The film's use of archive footage shot by an Italian camera crew between 1970 and 1973 is nothing short of genius.
