IU Russian Flagship at a glance
Description of the video:
This is a mock quest story created by our team of Russian language students and instructors. The central character (played by 2nd-year Russian student Kyle Tucker) confesses his love for the Russian language and overcomes many obstacles to prove his love. A chorus of instructors and peers warn the protagonist of the trials and tribulations to come, but nothing discourages the protagonist who emerges as a true hero.
The main rap theme comes from Adobe stock audio, and we have Russified it by adding bits from the popular heavy metal song I’m free! (Kipelov, 1997) and the famous last-century opera Prince Igor (Borodin, Rimsky-Korsakov, Glazunov, 1890).
