Anna Akhmatova. The Eternal Presence

1h 19m

Dmitri Shostakovich called her the "Queen of Russian Poetry". She remained a queen in the memory of those who knew her, a queen who survived great glory and the bitterness of humiliation, trampled down by the authorities and retaining her dignity. She lived a long life. The star of the Silver Age, she died on March 5, 1966 by a whim of fate on the day of Stalin's death.
