Description:

A dangerous independent investigation into an attempted poisoning on an airplane that rocked the Russian government! A tense documentary closely following "Putin's most feared man"! The police brutality against civilian protests, pressure on the media...a glimpse into the reality of the Russian government! The most important film to watch now that Russia's aggressive military invasion of Ukraine is underway! Alexei Nawarinny is a Russian lawyer and political activist. His criticism of Putin's regime on the Internet has attracted attention both at home and abroad, and he is called the "charismatic dissident" because of the ardent support he has received from dissidents, especially young people. He formed his own political party and ran for mayor of Moscow, where he did very well. Eventually he became the regime's greatest enemy, and was repeatedly arrested unjustly. Over the hospital's objections, Nawarinui was transferred to a German hospital, where he miraculously recovered and formed an investigation team. Who is the person who poisoned him? Using unbelievable methods, the team uncovers the forces lurking in the shadows of the assassination attempt.Directed by Daniel Rohr, whose "The Band: We Were Brothers Once" was the first Canadian documentary film to open to critical acclaim. The film was made in secret, following Nawarinui, his family, and the investigative team in the aftermath of the assassination attempt. When the film was screened as a secret film at this year's Sundance Film Festival, it attracted worldwide attention for its shocking content and won both the Audience Award and the Festival Favorite Award. On Rotten Tomatoes, it received an astonishingly high rating of 100% FRESH as of May 9. This film, which delves into the actuality of how dangerous it is to raise one's voice in protest against the government, is a series of thrilling and unpredictable developments that make you feel as if you are watching a spy movie. This documentary is a must-see now, capturing the struggle against a powerful authoritarian state.
