La questione del contrasto cromatico in “Dylda” di Kantemir Balagov

The essay, titled "The colour issue as chromatic opposition in Kantemir Balagov’s Dylda", focuses on Ksenia Sereda’s cinematography for Beanpole (Dylda, 2019), Russian filmmaker Kantemir Balagov’s sophomore movie. The aim is to disclose how her photo-cinematic achievement deals with the colour issue in terms of chromatic opposition, so as to highlight its connection to the theory of colours by Goethe, the aesthetic consideration by Eisenstein and the pictorial practice by El Greco, Nikolay Bogdanov-Belsky and Natalia Goncharova.
