Filmmaker Vitaly Mansky talks with Yana Isaenko, a graduate of Marina Razbezhkina’s School of Documentary Film, about documentary cinema as a way of bearing witness to our times, her new film “The Doors Are Closing,” shot before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and its protagonists, who find themselves caught up in a transformed Russian reality. Why did Yana leave Russia after the war began? Where is the line between observation and a filmmaker’s responsibility? And is it possible to remain on the sidelines when ideology, absurdity, and propaganda are becoming increasingly pervasive? A conversation about cinema, war, emigration, and the gulf that has opened up between people on opposite sides of a new reality.
