Life


Mostovoy was born to Tanya Olshanskaya and her husband, Mikhail Yakovlevich Mostovoy (1912 – 1987), a Red Army commander who served in the Far East. His parents met when his future father was only 24 years old and, having gone for a vacation to relatives in Odessa, Ukraine, met his wife-to-be. The couple moved to Vladivostok, where Mostovoy was born.

In 1955, after graduating from high school and music school, Mostovoy entered the Physics Department of the Saint Petersburg Electrotechnical University. In 1961, upon his graduation, he began working at the Scientific Research Institute of Broadcasting Reception and Acoustics [3] in (Leningrad).

A physicist by education, he began his career in film as an amateur. He made his first film “ Living Water” [4] (1965), which brought him many international prizes. It was then that he left his scientific career, and in 1965 the All-Union State Institute of Cinematography (VGIK). At the same time, he began to work at the Leningrad newsreel studio Lendoc. There, as a cameraman, he shot his first films, “Look at the Face” [5](1966) and “Marina’s Life” [6](1966). A year later he made his directorial debut with the film, “ Only Three Lessons” [7](1968). These works of art became classics.[8]

Mostovoy became historically renowned as a documentary filmmaker. He was one of the creators of the so-called “Leningrad Wave” [9] which he and his colleagues made popular with their films. Those colleagues included Pavel Kogan,[10] Mikhail Litvyakov,[11] Semyon Aranovich, Valery Guryanov.[12] This was a unique phenomenon for Soviet film in those years.

In 1970, Mostovoy was invited by the Polish Minister of Cinematography to join the Warsaw Documentary Film Studio, where he directed the film “Master Belkovsky and Comrades.”

From 1970 to 1976 he worked as a director and screenwriter at film studios in Moscow and Leningrad.

Since 1971 he has been a member of the Union of Cinematographers (Moscow)[13]

In 1977 he was accepted as a director at the Central Studio of Documentary Films (CSDF) in Moscow. In the late 1980’s – early 1990’s he headed the Risk Film Studio (Moscow) and a creative workshop at the Higher Directing School in Moscow and taught at the Norwegian National Film Center [14] in Oslo.

He was a member of the jury of international Film Festivals in Nyon (Switzerland, 1992), Leipzig (2002), Krakow (2003), St. Petersburg (2003), Warsaw (2007), Plovdiv (2007).

Since 1993 Mostovoy has been living and working as a freelance Director for several Israeli Television Channels.
