Early life and education

[edit]

Born on 2 February 1951, in the Ukrainian city of Lviv.[1] He received his degree from Lviv University in 1973. He received his degree as a film and television director in 1981 from the Kyiv National I. K. Karpenko-Kary Theatre, Cinema and Television University. He has been employed at the Ukrtelefilm studio since 1982. The Telecon studio's creator and director since 1992.[2][3]

Career

[edit]

Filming for the documentary series Chernobyl: Two Colors of Time started as Kobrin started to deal with the fallout from the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster.[1] Notably, Kobrin directed the children's film Чудеса в Гарбузянах in 1985. Two of them are Марія (1988) and Про щастя співа Україна (1987).[4]

Kobrin died at the age of seventy-two on 10 December 2023.[4][5] Stella Klominskaya, one of his colleagues, broke the news of his death.[1]

Political positions

[edit]

Perspective on Politics

[edit]

Kobrin said in a 2018 interview that allies exist in politics instead of friends, and ours could not get this. They were unaware that everyone who opposed the reds was an ally rather than a temporary opponent. For this reason, white people—Denikin's volunteer army, Kolchak, and gold seekers in general—had something in common despite their disparate political ideologies: they opposed Bolshevism. He went on to say that historians should study history, while politicians should study politics.[6]

Great Patriotic War

[edit]

Kobrin said in a 2020 interview that there was, in reality, more than one conflict for him. They refer to this as the Great Patriotic War that the people fought since it was the conflict that separated them from World War II and was fought by the Stalinist dictatorship. In actuality, the people prevailed in the Great Patriotic War while Stalin lost his Second World War. It was evident from the moment he produced "1941" that the Communist Soviet Union and Nazi Germany were the two regimes that started World War II. Also, both systems competed for global dominance.[7]
