Naum. Predictions

Naum. Predictions (2026) is a Russian documentary you can watch online on iFILM. Director Andrei Natotsynsky built it as a portrait of Naum Kleiman — film scholar, Eisenstein expert, and one of the last keepers of Soviet cinema's intellectual tradition.

In conversation with director Alexander Sokurov, Kleiman ranges freely: Pushkin and Godard share the same breath; Ozu and Dionysius sit next to each other without apology; Philip Glass and Snyders surface without warning. At 71 minutes, this is not a lecture. It's what happens when someone who has spent a lifetime inside culture simply talks — and the gaps between the names reveal more than the names themselves.
