In this episode we are in conversation with three leading women about the ways in which they relate to Russia, as part of our current season and exhibition of photographs of Leningrad and Moscow taken by Margaret Watkins in 1933. We talk to Natasha Butterwick, about her tenure as owner of the website Russian Art and Culture. We also discuss the role of women in pre-revolutionary and contemporary Russian cinema with author of the book 'Performing Femininity: Woman as Performer in Russian Cinema', Dr. Rachel Morley from the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London. Finally, we are taken on a journey to the snow covered streets of Moscow with the BAFTA award winning film and television director Margy Kinmonth, the name behind 'Hermitage Revealed' and most recently 'Revolution: New Art for a New World', who also sheds exclusive light on her newest film project in Russia.
