Transcription
Name
Valeriya Gai Germanika was born and registered Valeriya, named after Lucius Cornelius Sulla's wife Valeria, and later legally changed her given name, patronymic (to alienate from the biological father) and family name (in a Roman style) upon her adolescence.[2]
Biography and career
Born to a Bohemian Moscow family (father Igor Dudinsky)[3] and trained at the Internews Cinema and Television School, Valeriya started directing at age nineteen. Her second film The Girls and subsequent The Birthday of the Infanta (both documentary) appeared at the Kinotavr film festival.[4]
In the beginning of 2010, Channel One aired Valeriya Gai Germanika's highly-controversial 69-episode TV-series School portraying teenagers life in an ordinary Moscow school. The project caused a lot of heated debates in Russian society due to unusual depiction of Russian school routine, including subcultures, promiscuity, alcoholism, drug use, etc.[5]
Valeriya has been the creative director for MTV Russia since 2010.
