New documentary by Semyon Pinkhasov, "Safer than the Land" tells stories of several well-known immigrants who left their countries of birth to find themselves in other lands. They discuss reasons for their success, difficulties they had to overcome. The film takes viewers to the US, Canada, Israel and Russia.
The discussion will go beyond the scope of the new work, since we at RACC have been showing Pinkhsov's documentaries on various topics for about two decades, such as the series "Art under Dictatorship", the Holocaust and the grassroots Israeli-Palestinian peace initiative, the 2012 documentary "Sport and Peace ".
Russian-American Cultural Center programing is made possible by part with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, Cojeco and Tianaderrah Foundation.
