Scope and content

Through the prism of an annual beauty pageant staged by the inmates of UF-91/9 prison camp near Novosibirsk (Siberia), Marina Yatskova builds a complex narrative of the lives of the first generation of women to come of age in Post-Soviet Russia. Prison warden Natalya Baulina recounts the origins of the pageant during the turbulent nineties, when they had no clothing or supplies and inmates were forced to make their own dresses out of plastic bags from the prison kitchen. The prize for the winner was parole for good behavior. In a subtle paradox, these women – blind victims of their age and of unfulfilled promises of economic well-being – have been able to turn their confinement around, at least in the emotional sense.
