Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa’s filmography seemingly captures lessons of history that come with an inherent warning. Loznitsa, who believes that “none of the existing societies, no matter how advanced and democratic, are immune to authoritarianism and dictatorship” could not have picked a better time to remind the world of this notion. Exploring this view with the Great Purge, under Joseph Stalin in the 1930s, Two Prosecutors investigates the effects of ravenous fearmongering through tactics of terror. This story of civic injustice isn’t just a great achievement by the director. It’s a cautionary tale about the repetition of tragic moments in history.
