Synopsis "From Russia with Hope: Russian Women's Journeys to the West (in English)"
The journeys of twenty-one Russian women all of whom came to the West -some in the 1960s and some as late as the 2000s - some searching for a fresh start, some for love, some for a better life for their families. How do these women see their life, both past and present? How do they feel about their childhood, childbirth and abortion; their marriage and husbands; religion; their role as women; their new lives the West; and their dreams or hopes both fulfilled and/or dashed? Follow their experiences from the Soviet Union/Russia to their lives as immigrants in their new communities. Engage with their very personal stories of challenge, change and transformation. Meet and relive the tales of women of very different ages (from 30 to 70) - the oldest living under Stalin and the youngest remembering times just before Gorbachev. What happened to them when they came to the West? Why did they leave? Each story is unique but many common experiences are revealed. Read the accounts of their views and experiences as interviewed by Elizabeth A. Stewart, a noted Russian specialist and immigrant herself.
