metadata.value: The problem of genre formation in cinema constantly causes controversy and discrepancies
  among art historians, since this type of creativity is synthetic, using the creative possibilities
  of other types of art. Сommon in the definition of the term “genre” is only the provision that a
  genre is a way of embodying a certain concept of reality in a work, creating an artistic picture
  or an artistic model of the world, perceived from a certain angle, which implies a limitation in the choice of means of artistic embodiment of the theme of the work. Like any complex
  concept, a genre should be considered in a system of several coordinates, among which the
  dominant features inherent in a particular genre play the most significant role. These two
  dominants are: 1) the emotion that the film should evoke in the viewer (laughter, horror, sympathy,
  etc.); 2) the theme of the film (historical, military, sci-fi, etc.). When investigating the
  problem of genre formation, one should also not forget that the genre is a historical category, i.
  e. the specific period in which it was created plays an important role in determining the genre
  characteristics of a particular film. Over the past 30 years, Russian cinema has undergone
  significant changes in the aesthetic and ethical paradigm, including changes in the themes
  and genre palette of films. This article is the first attempt to analyze the process of mastering
  by Russian cinematography new genres for it, which were not previously in the repertoire of
  Russian cinema (fantasy, disaster film, horror, biopic, musical). Having considered the problem
  of interaction between cultural globalization and national mentality, the author comes to
  the conclusion that, having survived the period of imitation of foreign models, Russian genre
  cinema at the present stage has the opportunity to gain self-identification and become an art
  that is in demand by a wide audience.
