ROENTGENIZDAT - 'The Strange Story of Soviet Music on the Bone'
"Leningrad 1946, the Cold War: All culture is subject to the brutal control of a totalitarian state censor. But music-mad bootleggers devise an incredible and risky way to listen to and share the music they love, copying forbidden songs onto used X-ray film and creating their own records.."
It features interviews with Soviet era x-ray Bootleggers, musicians Marc Almond and Stephen Coates and extraordinary archive footage telling the story of one of the strangest eras in vinyl, music, forbidden culture and cold war history.
An award winning documentary by Stephen Coates and Paul Heartfield
