History
overview
What is Sofia Kovalevskaya about?
A film about the remarkable life of Russian mathematician Sofia Vasilyevna Kovalevskaya (1850-1891), the first woman to become a corresponding member of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences. Sofia Kovalevskaya's life was full of complex and dramatic twists and turns. These included a fictitious marriage that allowed her to obtain a higher education abroad; a period when she and her husband embarked on a commercial venture; and, finally, her breakup with him. The film's drama is built on the fact that Sofia Kovalevskaya's grown-up daughter, Fufa, several years after her mother's death, tries to understand who she was not only as a mathematician and public figure, but also simply as a person. It blends drama, history, tv movie elements. The film reflects a distinct Soviet Union style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Ayan Shakhmaliyeva. With a runtime of 3h 32m, it offers an epic cinematic journey.
