Sergei Parajanov Sergei Parajanov (Armenian: Սերգեյ Փարաջանով ; Russian: Серге́й Ио́сифович Параджа́нов ; Georgian: სერგო ფარაჯანოვი ; Ukrainian: Сергій Йо́сипович Параджа́нов ; sometimes spelled Paradzhanov or Paradjanov; January 9, 1924 – July 20, 1990) was a Soviet film director and artist of Armenian descent who made significant contributions to Soviet cinematography through Ukrainian, Armenian, and Georgian cinema. He invented his own cinematic style, which was totally out of step with the guiding principles of socialist realism (the only sanctioned art style in the USSR). This, combined with his controversial lifestyle and behaviour, led Soviet authorities to repeatedly persecute and imprison him, and suppress his films.
