Multimedia exhibition "Remember"

On June 15, the grand opening of the Let us recall exhibition will take place at the Russia - My History Museum and Exhibition Center. The author's project about the war in the first person is being implemented with the support of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation.

The exhibition is based on unique diaries, letters, memoirs, archival photos and videos and is built on the principle of a feature film using video mapping technology. Visitors start watching from the “hall of the last peaceful day”: residents of the Soviet Union are preparing for a normal working week, and schoolchildren are celebrating their graduation, not knowing that tomorrow their lives will change forever.

The digital exposition was created by a group of young authors for the 75th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. Its concept consists of seven rooms connected by a single plot, each of which tells the story of one of the participants in the war - a marshal, a prisoner of a concentration camp, a resident of besieged Leningrad.

“Let us remember” is an exhibition that plunges the viewer into an unfamiliar state, pulls them out of their everyday context and allows them to find themselves in the epicenter of events. Here you can look at the war through the eyes of people who are unlike each other, who have found themselves in completely different circumstances, but united by one common grief. This is not an attraction or a history book. This is a project that encourages the viewer to shudder at an emotional level ... ”, director Lev Mavrin said about the exhibition.

Moving around the exhibition, the visitor finds himself in the corridors of the Kremlin. Taking off the phone (the exhibition has exclusive telephones from the times of the war), he learns that the highest military leadership of the USSR urgently needs to come to an emergency meeting with J.V. Stalin. Further, the visitor will find himself in the leader's office and understand how the first decisions on the transition of the Soviet Union to martial law were made.

The exhibition will be located in the XX century hall and will run until September 1, 2021.
