Buratina Bar, November 10: The Ring — film screening and a lecture on the history of horror

A dark cinematic story gets a bigger context with a screening of The Ring (2002) followed by an opening lecture by film historian Aleksandra Sidorova. At Buratina Bar, the audience first steps into one of the most influential American horror films of the 2000s, then hears how American horror evolved and why The Ring still manages to unsettle viewers today. It’s a great event both for dedicated genre fans and for those who usually watch horror from behind their hands: the film is experienced together, with a conversation that opens up the wider picture of landmark films and the wave of Japanese horror remakes in Hollywood.
