DESCRIPTION:\n	Followed by a discussion with director Sergei Loznitsa and J
 ochen Hellbeck\, Distinguished Professor of History at Rutgers University\
 , moderated by film critic J. Hoberman\n	\n\n\n	Dir. Sergei Loznitsa. Ukra
 ine. 2018\, 127 mins. In Russian with English subtitles. Sergei Loznitsa’s
  latest found footage documentary is comprised of painstakingly researched
  and restored black-and-white footage from one of Joseph Stalin's first sh
 ow trials\, recorded in 1930 in Moscow. The trial and its consequences are
  real\, while the crime is fake—a spectacle concocted by Stalin's governme
 nt to buoy his political intentions and cement his standing. All charged w
 ith seeking to sabotage the USSR at the behest of French Prime Minister Ra
 ymond Poincaré and other Western leaders\, one accused man after another c
 onfesses to crimes they never actually committed. Furthermore they do so c
 onvincingly\, dutifully playing the part of traitors for an audience of th
 eir fellow citizens—also occasionally seen subjected to the harsh glare of
  lighting and the de facto surveillance of the camera. Without ever leavin
 g 1930\, Loznitsa has made a film that’s also entirely about today.&nbsp\;
 U.S. premiere. \n\n\n	Tickets: $15 (Free for members at the Film Lover lev
 el and MoMI Kids Premium levels and above). Order tickets online. (Members
