Russian Documentary State Funeral features excellent Archival Footage

Moscow, March 1953: in the days following the death of Joseph Stalin, countless citizens flooded the Red Square to mourn their leader’s loss and witness his burial. Though the procession was captured in detail by hundreds of cameramen, their footage has remained largely unseen until now.

Ukrainian filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa uses excellently shot archival footage about the state funeral of the Soviet Leader to great effect in his 2019 released film State Funeral. Really looking forward to see this film.
