Born in The USSR: 21 Up - Russian Edit

Russian Edit

A version edited by Miroshnichenko totaling 3 hours was shown on TV channel "Russia" in June 2007. It was the film first run on Russia's National Television and the former-Soviet Union. The documentary is divided into two parts: "Confusion of tongues" and "Mountain of Megiddo". This longer and more thorough version will include all the children from the previous documentaries and not only the selected children featured in the UK version. However, because of the agreement with the distributor company, this version cannot be shown outside the former Soviet Union. A similar version has been shown to selected audiences when Miroshnichenko visited the United States in April 2007.

In 2008 the film became a winner of three awards in Russian Cinematograph: Nika, Zolotoi Orel and Stalker.

    To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit it and read it are old women over their tea.
