Albania

This 27-minute documentary showcases the everyday life in Albania during a pivotal historical moment. Roman Karmen, a notable Russian cameraman, captures the essence of the country as it transitions under communist rule. The film's approach is distinct, as it lacks the heavy socialist realism often found in other Albanian documentaries of the time.

Produced by the Central Studio of Documentary Films, "Albania" offers insights into the social landscape of the country shortly after the communists took power. Karmen's work is significant not only for its content but also for its timing, as he later documented the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany in Berlin. Collectors may find this film a valuable piece for its historical context and unique artistic approach to documentary filmmaking.
