Aquest articel va ser publicat el 29 de novembre, uns dies abans de les controvertides eleccions parlamentàries , i malgrat tot aquest cineasta, amb un coneixement limitat de la llengua i la cultura russes, com ja va indicar al principi de l'entrevista, semblava estar al cas d'un mal presagi.
This post was published on November 29, which was days before the controversial parliamentary elections, and yet this film maker, who had a limited understanding of the Russian language or Russian culture, as he indicated earlier in the interview, seemed to be aware of something ominous.
