About Leo Tolstoy: Beyond Photography
Who is he - Leo Tolstoy? The film, based on Tolstoy's diary and his photographs, plunges into Tolstoy's special, borderless dialogue with himself and with the world, which does not end, as he believed, with death. However, it will not be possible to see Tolstoy himself - he is given only in reflections: in photographs and in the perception of other people.
Directed by Dmitry Novikov, Leo Tolstoy: Beyond Photography leans on a strong ensemble — Yelena Tonunts, Artur Kharitonenko, Aleksandr Klyukvin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2023.
