- Abstract
This article is devoted to the representation of the cultural trauma of memory in documentary films. The construction of the Boguchanskaya GES on the Angara River is considered as a traumatic event, which resulted in the flooding of more than two dozen villages and hamlets in the Kezhemsky district of Krasnoyarsk Krai and the scattered resettlement of local residents throughout the region. The following work is just one of the fragments of a larger study of the cultural memory of Krasnoyarsk Krai residents, recorded in various forms of audiovisual creativity. In this paper, the material for the study are the films of Krasnoyarsk documentary filmmakers shot in the early XXI century. It is in cinematographic works, as well as in materials of other media, that researchers of memory studies see today one of the possible keys to understanding this phenomenon. The following films were chosen as material for analysis: “Farewell, Angara” (2010) and “The Last Kezhmar” (2021) by A. Grishakov, “Tamara’s Last Fishing Trip” (2014) by E. Astrakhantseva, “River of Life” (2010) by S. Miroshnichenko. As a result of the study, the peculiarities of the cultural trauma of the residents of the Angara villages were noted, as well as the ways of representation that make it possible to fix this tragedy in the memory not only of the local community, but also of the residents of the entire region
