Two Days and The Night Coachman are two newly restored Soviet Ukrainian thrillers about men caught in the violent maelstrom of revolution and pushed to the brink by all sides. Produced under the auspices of VUFKU , the famous All-Ukrainian Photo-Film Administration, the films are notable for a masterful cinematography of chiaroscuro and a complex presentation of revolution devoid of triumphalism—but replete with dread.

Wine reception to follow the screenings.
