"The Russian Five" is headed to Campus Martius.
The hit documentary about the charismatic Russian hockey stars who helped propel the Red Wings to back-to-back Stanley Cups will get a free outdoor screening at 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22, at the park in downtown Detroit.
After receiving its world premiere at Freep Film Festival's opening night in 2018, the film has gone on to an award-winning festival run and national distribution, both theatrically and on streaming platforms.
The latest Detroit screening will be introduced by former Red Wing Darren McCarty, who was a member of the two Stanley Cup champions that featured Russian stars Sergei Fedorov, Slava Fetisov, Slava Kozlov, Igor Larionov and Vladimir Konstantinov.
