Two faces of capitalism
Russia was a lawless place following the fall of communism. Gangsters carved up what remained of the economy; and westerners flooded in, also looking for a quick buck, both exploiting the lack of order, but also threatened by it. The owners of an American ice hockey team decided to opportunistically buy a Russian one, and sent over a young huckster to market it; he had the time of his life, doing all sorts of things he could never have got away with in America. But when the money started to flow, the mafia wanted it. ‘Red Penguins’ tells the story, with interviews with most of the participants. It’s entertaining, though also a disturbing tale. Fundamentally, the documentary is centred on its personalities: it gives us a flavour of the times, more than it does a detailed explanation. It’s conclusion, showing us pictures of a drunken Boris Yeltsin, makes the point figuratively rather than logically. Today there is order in Russia once more, albeit not in the happiest of ways. Some of those who stole and got their money out are now regarded as perfectly acceptable members of the global elite. That’s capitalism, folks!

Alright – Interesting Topic
The trailer looked crazy-good, but the trailer is packed with all the crazy there is. Spread that out over an hour and a half and it’s less exhilarating. That said, it’s a pretty interesting look at Russia at the time and how the politics and civil unrest were destabilizing it. I found those parts more interesting than the hockey parts.
