The Moscow Circus

Directed by Saula Benavente

With Ekaterina Moshaeva, Gabriela Popov, Svetlana Treshina, Zurdo Roizner and Pipo Pescador

The arrival of the Russian State Circus in Argentina in 1966 was an unprecedented event. For the first time, Soviet artists crossed the Iron Curtain into Latin America. Their art was unsurpassed, until in the 1990s, with the perestroika and the Soviet collapse, the circus also disappeared.
