Kurzfassung:
Althrough the early Russian cinema industry was based mainly in Moscow, provincial film-making contributed some striking novelties. Among these were the Latvian "Wedding Day"" (1912), providing an invaluable record of traditional Jewish customs, and the sensational blackmail melodrama "Merchant Bashkirov's Daughter" (1913), set on the Volga.

This selection was made by Ian Christie for an exhibition ‘Twilight of the Tsars’ at London’s Hayward Gallery in 1991. The films were transferred at appropriate running speeds, with improvised music by Neil Brand, and English subtitles by Julian Graffy of the School of Slavonic and European Studies, University of London.
