The FEMEN Racktivists go Conceptual (nsfw).


Fuck if I know what they're up to here. Is that a Bergman or Fellini film? There's a goose and monks and Putin and boobs, of course. Guesses welcome. Update: The footage is from a 1967 Russian horror film called "Viy" (thanks cheese). View lots and lots more of FEMEN's angry protest boobs here (nsfw).

It's based on/uses scenes from a 1967 movie called Viy: the seminarist killed a witch and now has to fight off evil spirits, including the witch, for three nights in a special ceremony.

It kind of makes sense.

That would explain why the video is called "Viy," which per usual, I didn't take the time to look up.

> a 1967 Russian horror film

i would not call it a 'horror film'? the movie is based on the nikolai gogol story, which was published before there were films. it is more like a 'folklore story'?

Yeah, any movie based on anything written *before* there were films cannot be horror. Ever.
