The film was Sergei Parajanov&#39;s first major work and earned him international acclaim for its rich use of costume and colour. The festival program from the 1966 edition of the New York Film Festival described the film as an &quot;avant-garde, extravagant, sumptuous saga&quot; and a &quot;haunting work&quot; that combined folk-songs and atonal music with fantastic camera work. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is considered to be the most internationally heralded Ukrainian film in history, and a classic of Ukrainian magical realist cinema. Film in Ukrainian with English subtitles. Admission is free with prior registration.
