Bouwen te midden van eenzaamheid: Van Loghem in Siberië

EYE screens the documentary Bouwen te midden van eenzaamheid commemorating the first centenary of the Russian Revolution. Pim Zwiers' documentary is a fascinating tale about the life and work of the Dutch modernist architect Han van Loghem who travelled to the Siberian town Kemerovo. Film maker Anna Abraham's short documentary Sotsgorod Kemerovo - on the construction of the international colony Kuzbass in Siberia - will be shown as well.
