Larisa Yefimovna Shepitko (Russian: Лари́са Ефи́мовна Шепи́тько, Ukrainian: Лариса Юхимівна Шепітько, romanized: Larysa Yukhymivna Shepitko; 6 January 1938 – 2 July 1979)[1] was a Soviet film director and screenwriter of Ukrainian origin.[2] She is considered one of the best female directors of all time,[3] with her film The Ascent being the second film directed by a woman to win a Golden Bear[4][5] and the third film directed by a woman to win a top award at a major European film festival (Cannes, Venice, Berlin).[6][7][8]
Shepitko was also considered one of the most prominent Soviet filmmakers during both the Khrushchev Thaw and the Era of Stagnation. The Khrushchev Thaw was a direct response to the limitations that were forced upon Soviet citizens during Stalin's reign, and essentially marked the inception of an innovative return to the cinematic arts.[9][10] Shepitko's career was cut short in 1979 when she was killed in a car accident while scouting locations for the film Farewell. Her husband Elem Klimov created a 20-minute tribute documentary called Larisa to honor her legacy.
