Historical footages
1982:
Never Say Never
The movie about the history of the BZ reaction was televised on Moscow State Television. Art Winfree and John Tyson were invited to the 1983 Pushchino conference, where they saw the Russian version of the documentary, which was translated on the fly by one of their hosts. They asked if they could have a copy. Some months later they received videotapes of the documentary. John Pojman digitized the VHS tape later (on Youtube).
1985:
В поисках единства (In search of unity)
The movie is a documentary created by ЛенНаучФильм (LenNauchfilm) for the Institute of Biophysics in Pushchino, Soviet Union in 1985. It was uploaded by Bakhti and Olga Vassiev.
Among other things, it shows (links go directly to Youtube)
