Filmmaker Alexander Sokurov broke boundaries with his dreamlike vision of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg in the first feature-length narrative filmed in a single take. "Russian Ark" is shot from the point-of-view of an unseen narrator, as he explores the vast museum and travels through Russian history alongside a sarcastic and eccentric 19th century French Marquis.
