My Perestroika follows five typical Russians living in momentous times -- starting with their sheltered Soviet childhood, continuing to the collapse of the Soviet Union while they were teenagers, to the continually changing political landscape of post-Soviet Russia. Together, these childhood classmates reveal to us what it was like to be raised behind the Iron Curtain.
The film is in Russian, with English subtitles. Running time: 1 hour 27 minutes.
