Seeing the Bigger Picture: Conspiratorial Revisions of World War II History in Recent Russian Cinema

This article analyzes revisions of World War II history in recent Russian cinema and television, including the feature filmThe Match(Andrei Maliukov, 2012),Spy (Aleksei Andrianov, 2012), and the television seriesLiquidation(Sergei Ursuliak, 2007). All these productions rely on the logic of conspiracy theory for their reimaginations of war history: pivotal developments during the war or its aftermath are presented as the result of subterranean manipulations by enemies or intelligence services. Through a narrative and visual analysis, the article shows how these films and series use the notion of conspiracy to reformat the contexts of wartime events and to place them within a speculative “bigger picture.” In doing so, they infer that what we know about the past is merely a part or effect of larger, hidden designs. Finally, the article situates these findings within a wider “reconciliation with the Soviet” in Putin-era culture, which increasingly centers on the remembrance of World War II.

看大局:近期俄罗斯电影中对二战历史的阴谋修订

本文分析了近期俄罗斯电影和电视对二战历史的修改,包括故事片比赛(安德烈·马留科夫,2012),间谍(阿列克谢安德里亚诺夫,2012 年)和电视连续剧清算(谢尔盖乌苏利亚克,2007)。所有这些作品都依赖于阴谋论的逻辑来重新想象战争历史:战争期间或其后果的关键发展是敌人或情报部门地下操纵的结果。通过叙事和视觉分析,文章展示了这些电影和连续剧如何使用阴谋的概念来重新格式化战时事件的背景,并将它们置于一个投机的“更大的图景”中。通过这样做,他们推断我们对过去的了解只是更大的隐藏设计的一部分或效果。最后,文章将这些发现置于普京时代文化中更广泛的“与苏联和解”中,这种文化越来越集中于对二战的纪念。
