In the 1970s and 1980s, he taught required courses in philosophy at Russia&#8217;s two leading film schools, helping to educate a generation of internationally prolific directors. Exploring Mamardashvili&#8217;s extensive philosophical output, as well as a range of recent Russian films, Alyssa DeBlasio reveals the intellectual affinities amongst directors of the Mamardashvili generation &#8211; including Alexander Sokurov, Andrey Zvyagintsev and Alexei Balabanov.
