The Luck Meter(Измеритель удачи)

Russia · 2017
39m
Director Dmitry Zavilgelsky
Starring Boris Mirkin
Genre Documentary

It is a portrait film of Boris Mirkin, one of the pioneers of Soviet programming. In the film, Mirkine does not speak so much of the artificial intelligence as the chapka (fur cap) he bought in London, the collection of horse figurines or his children scattered in different countries. In fact, it is not really a gay story because it is the portrait of a whole generation of Soviet scientists. He started working in cybernetics in a country where artificial intelligence was used to study the daily behavior of villagers. He left because his family dreaded the pogroms against the Jews. He made a career in the West. He came back because in Russia, we think in Russian.

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
