Stunning August 10, 2008 This documentary is beautifully filmed. It is an amazing view into this small world made up of fascinating contrasts. The tattoos themselves seem to encompass it all, the beauty, the sadness, the organization that the prisoners have created in their community of exaggerated human condition, and the reality of the crimes that the tattoos represent.
One of most important documentaries on Russia October 17, 2008 The Mark of Cain is the macro lens. On the surface, this incredible documentary by Alix Lambert is an excruciatingly tight close-up of tattoos and their role in Russia's criminal world. Yet it turns out this is only a device to look at larger issues, at the role of prisons and crime in Russia. Amazingly, Lambert and her film crew gained access to Russian prisons and - even more remarkably - got prisoners to talk openly about their lives (and tattoos). As a result, this is one of the most important documentaries on Russia to emerge in the last 15 years. Honest, revealing, heart-breaking, it is a superb work of journalism. (Reviewed in Russian Life)
