‘How the Beatles Rocked the Kremlin’ is Leslie Woodhead’s most recent film. It frames a career that began in 1962 filming a then unknown band in Liverpool’s Cavern Club. 25 years later, when Leslie began to make films in Russia, he discovered how the Beatles legend had soaked into the lives of a generation. Now, coming full circle, he has returned to Russia to meet the Beatles generation and hear how the Fab Four changed their lives - and transformed their country into ‘Beatlestan.’ In this Masterclass, Leslie will share 20 years experiences of making documentaries in Russia.
