Plot synopsis
The main characters of this caustic report on Russia’s chilling sociopolitical landscape are the representatives of the local opposition, for whom protesting against the Kremlin has become their raison d’être. Their diverse lives form the foundation upon which grows a more general discourse on democracy, freedom, and the need of the masses to seek a charismatic leader.
