Rodnyansky was born in Kyiv to Jewish parents Efim Naumovich Fridman and Larisa Zinovyevna Rodnyanskaya.[12] Both parents worked at the Ukrainian film studio 'Kontakt'. His father Yefim Fridman was a senior engineer, while his mother Larisa Rodnyanskaya worked as a film producer and later was assigned director of the 'Kontakt'.[13] Alexander's maternal grandfather Zinovy Rodnyansky was chief editor of the Ukrainian documentary film studios, his cousin Esfir Shub was a prominent Soviet director.[14][15][16] Alexander's cousin Boris Fuchsmann is a German media mogul and investor,[17] he is also the vice-president of the World Jewish Congress and the President of Jewish Confederation of Ukraine.[18] Together the cousins co-founded the 1+1 TV Channel and built the Hilton hotel in Kyiv.[19][20] Irina Rodnyanskaya [ru], Alexanders aunt-cousin, was a prominent Russian critic and literary historian, laureate of the Pushkin Prize and the Solzhenitsyn Prize. His cousin once removed Lazar Rodnyansky [ru] was a Soviet engineer, laureate of the Lenin Prize for creation of the Myasishchev M-4 bomber.[21][22]

Career

[edit]

He directed 10 feature short motion pictures which won him over 40 prestigious awards both at home and abroad. For the documentary Raoul Wallenberg's Mission he was awarded the highest award for a documentary filmmaker in the USSR – the Russian National Film Award NIKA as well as the European Film Award (for Best Documentary).[13]

TV

[edit]

When Leonid Kuchma became the President, Rodnyansky returned to Ukraine. With a start-up capital of $400,000, Rodnyansky and his cousin Boris Fuchsmann co-founded the 1+1 Channel.[25][26][19][20] They were given 2.5 hours of daily screen time on the state channel UA:First. The channel was in a poor state then, it was unprofitable and had only 7% of the audience.[13][27] Under new management, in two years 1+1 became the leader of the television market in Ukraine. Rodnyansky served as CEO and was a co-owner of the company together with Central European Media Enterprises (CME).[28] On January 1, 1997, 1+1 started broadcasting on the UT-2 Ukrainian State Channel [pl]. In 1997, Rodnyansky sold his 30% of shares in 1+1 to CME for $22 mln.[29] Later, in 2005–2008, CME bought 100% of shares.[30]

In 2002 Peter Gerwe asked Rodnaynsky to head the American company Story First Communication (later renamed CTC Media) which operated one TV-channel – CTC. Rodnaynsky started buying licenses on Western TV series and shows and produced their localisation for Russia. Under his leadership the company transformed into an international television powerhouse with five channels in three countries.[23]

Rodnyansky led CTC Media to become the first ever Russian media company with an IPO on NASDAQ. In 2002 the CTC Channel had a market value of approximately $40 million; when Rodnyansky left CTC Media in 2008, the company's market capitalization was over $4 billion;[31] CTC doubled its audience share and became the fourth most popular channel in Russia.[13][25]

Public and political views

[edit]

As a Kyiv-born Ukrainian, Alexander Rodnyansky never held a Russian passport despite working in Russia for over 20 years. He holds a Ukrainian passport and has numerous friends and relatives in Ukraine, though his own family is Russian-speaking.[92] In a 2014 interview he explained his point of view of the Crimea annexation. According to Rodnyansky, losing the Crimea in 1992 was perceived by the Russian society as the deepest psychological injury in recent history, and in public perception the annexation was inevitable. He recalled that in 1995 Aleksei Balabanov explained this to him and that during the years of its independence, Ukraine did nothing to the Crimea. Rodnyansky was sure though, that a war between Russia and Ukraine is impossible.[93] In 2015 he explained that he sees deep flaws in both political systems, and expressed regrets, that Ukrainian culture and TV is controlled by the government as much as it is in Russia .[94]

In a 2019 interview, Rodnyansky criticized self-censorship in Russia and its growing trend for self-isolation.[38]

In April 2020 Rodnyansky's Non-Stop Production was excluded from the official register of the Russian State Cinema Committee [ru] which meant that they could no longer receive government fundings for their movie projects.[46]

From the first day of war, Alexander Rodnyansky publicly opposed the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He gave multiple anti-war interviews to both film industry publications - Variety ,[95] Deadline[96] and Screen International[97] as well as international media.

Alexander Rodnyansky turned his personal Instagram account into an anti-war media, documenting for his largely Russia-based audiences the atrocities of war in Ukraine, including the massacre of Bucha and other war crimes perpetrated by the Russian army.

Jerusalem Post first reported that In the first hours of war Rodnyansky was instrumental in getting a Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich to help broker a peace process.[98] This was later confirmed by UK and US media, including Sky News[99] and Financial Times.[100] Rodnyansky confirmed to FT his involvement. He said that Abramovich's influence over the Kremlin “was limited” but added that the billionaire was the only Russian figure who had agreed to help.

For his public anti-war position Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation Sergey Shoigu made a request to Minister of Culture Olga Lyubimova to eliminate "Rodnyansky from cultural agenda of Russia". In a letter leaked to a Russian publication Insider,[101] Rodnyansky was named alongside Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky.[102] Rodnyansky responded, that he is independent and does not need state money, but he is deeply troubled that the directors that he worked with - Zvyagintsev, Balagov, Kovalenko - might also suffer and their films might be «excluded from the cultural agenda».[103] Rodnyansky speaks up publicly not only against the war and the Putin regime, he also published an opinion piece in Financial Times[104] urging the West not to isolate Russians, who oppose Putin, who were either forced to leave the country or trapped under Putin's regime.[105]

A public pro-war group that lists «national traitors that pose threat to Russian interests» branded Alexander Rodnyansky as an «enemy» of the Russian state.[106]

On October 21, 2022, Alexander Rodnyansky was declared to be a "foreign agent" by the Russian Ministry of Justice.[107] A so-called “foreign agents” law, passed in 2012 and repeatedly expanded, allows the Justice Ministry to label for political reason opposition groups or individuals “foreign agents,” exposing them to fines and harassment that stymie their work.[108]

On May 17, 2023, the Basmanny District Court of Moscow arrested Rodnyansky in absentia in connection on the charges of "spreading fake news" about the Russian army.[109] There had been no previous reports of a criminal case against Rodnyansky.[109] According to the court's press service, Rodnyansky, who is outside Russia, will be arrested once Russian authorities manage to detain him or to get him extradited.[110]

On October 21, 2024 the Basmanny District Court of Moscow sentenced Alexander Rodnyansky to eight-and-a-half years in prison[111] for speaking out against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In 2023 Rodnyansky wrote in the Guardian[112] about his potential sentencing: “No other country in the world recognises this crime and I don’t either. I will continue to speak out against the invasion on every platform available to me". Russia has detained, fined and jailed thousands of people for opposing its Ukraine offensive since February 2022 – a crackdown rights groups have compared to the Soviet era.
