Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Russian Ark is a 2002 film from Russia, directed by Alexander Sokurov.The film follows an unseen narrator and his guest, a Frenchman named Custine, through the Russian State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg as they talk about the history of the city and the artifacts within the museum, bouncing around in time from the modern day to Joseph Stalin's era to Tsarist Russia and back again.Russian Ark is something of a miracle in filmmaking: The entire film (around 93 minutes, excluding the credits) was shot using a single Steadicam in one continuous, uninterrupted take. When you realize that this film has over 2,000 actors in it, this feat becomes even more incredible. | |

Dead to Begin With | |
| Russian Ark / int_999b994b | comment |
Dead to Begin With: The Narrator. Maybe. The opening dialogue establishes that the narrator was in an accident and "everyone ran for safety as best they could." Of course, the true state of affairs is a bit Mind Screwy, what with him being able to interact with people from various different times, some of whom can see him and some of whom can't. | |

Darkest Hour | |
| Russian Ark / int_f91d1d4f | comment |
Darkest Hour: At one point Custine opens a door, which the narrator begs him not to open, and they find themselves in a cold, icy room filled with empty picture frames. They find a haggard workman, building a coffin that he says is for himself. Custine and the narrator have walked into the 1941-44 siege of Leningrad, in which over a million residents of the city died of starvation and some of the survivors resorted to eating each other. | |
