Sovyet sonrası Rus sineması, Sovyetler Birliği’nin 1991’de çöküşünden sonra hem içerik hem de biçim açısından büyük dönüşümler yaşamıştır. Bu dönemde sinema, devletin sıkı denetiminden ve ideolojik baskısından kurtularak daha özgür bir yapıya kavuşmuş, bireylerin ve toplumun yaşadığı değişimleri daha özgün ve eleştirel bir perspektiften ele almaya başlamıştır. Sovyetler Birliği’nin 1991’de dağılması, Rus sineması için hem sanatsal hem de endüstriyel anlamda büyük bir dönüm noktası olmuştur. Sinema üzerindeki merkezi kontrolün sona ermesiyle birlikte sanatsal özgürlükler artmış, bireysel ve toplumsal sorunlara yönelik daha özgün ve eleştirel yapımlar ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Sovyet sonrası Rus sinemasının farklı dönemlerini, toplumsal ve politik bağlamdaki değişimlerle birlikte incelemek, bu sinemanın tematik ve estetik dönüşümlerini ortaya koymaktır. Bu makale, Sovyet sonrası Rus sinemasını üç ana dönem altında ele almaktadır: 1990'lar, 2000'ler ve 2010 sonrası. 1990’lar Sovyetler Birliği'nin çöküşüyle birlikte toplumsal ve ekonomik krizlerin sinemaya yansıdığı bir zaman dilimidir. Devlet desteğinden yoksun kalan sinema sektörü, düşük bütçeli yapımlara yönelmiştir. Filmler, bireylerin kimlik arayışını ve toplumsal çözülmeyi sert bir dille ele almıştır. Filmler, bireylerin toplumla ve devletle olan mücadelesine odaklanarak modern Rusya'nın sorunlarına eleştirel bir bakış sunmaktadır. Bulgular, Sovyet sonrası Rus sinemasının her döneminin, toplumsal ve politik yapılarla paralel olarak geliştiğini ortaya koymaktadır. 1990’lar ekonomik ve toplumsal krizlerle bireysel arayışları işleyen bir dönem olurken, 2000’ler devlet desteğiyle büyük prodüksiyonlara ve tarihî konulara yönelmiştir. 2010 sonrası ise sanatsal derinliğin arttığı, birey-devlet çatışmasının keskinleştiği bir dönem olmuştur. Rus sineması, bu dönemlerde toplumsal dönüşümleri ve bireylerin bu dönüşümlerle mücadelesini yansıtarak hem sanatsal hem de ticari başarılar elde etmiştir.

Period of Post-Soviet Russian Cinema

Post-Soviet Russian cinema has undergone major transformations in terms of both content and form after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. During this period, cinema gained a freer structure by escaping the strict control and ideological oppression of the state, and began to address the changes experienced by individuals and society from a more original and critical perspective. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 was a major turning point for Russian cinema in both artistic and industrial terms. With the end of central control over cinema, artistic freedoms increased, and more original and critical productions focused on individual and social problems emerged. The aim of this study is to examine the different periods of post-Soviet Russian cinema together with the changes in the social and political context, and to reveal the thematic and aesthetic transformations of this cinema. This article examines post-Soviet Russian cinema under three main periods: the 1990s, 2000s, and after 2010. The 1990s is a period in which social and economic crises were reflected in cinema following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Deprived of state support, the cinema sector turned to low-budget productions. The films dealt with individuals’ search for identity and social disintegration in a harsh manner. The films focus on individuals’ struggle with society and the state, offering a critical view of the problems of modern Russia. The findings reveal that every period of post-Soviet Russian cinema developed in parallel with social and political structures. While the 1990s were a period of economic and social crises and individual searches, the 2000s turned to large productions and historical subjects with state support. After 2010, there was a period in which artistic depth increased and the conflict between the individual and the state became more acute. Russian cinema achieved both artistic and commercial success by reflecting social transformations and individuals’ struggles with these transformations during these periods.
