Our screening series earlier this year, "Kino-Eye: The Revolutionary Cinema of Dziga Vertov," featured 14 rare Kino-Week newsreels from the Austrian Film Museum. These newsreels were created in 1918 and 1919, and were Vertov's first films. They provide an invaluable record of life in the young Soviet Russia, then in the throes of civil war.
The Austrian Film Museum has now made all 14 of its Kino-Week issues, each containing an average of 5 to 7 different items, available for viewing on its website. It's the first presentation of moving images on the Museum’s website, and UCLA Film & Television Archive salutes the initiative.
