A journey to find the origins of knowledge.

A gripping look at Putin's rise from humble beginnings to brutal dictatorship, and his emergence as one of the gravest threats to America's security.

Russian activists Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Ekaterina Samutsevich decide to separate from the well-known activist group Voina and create their own group named Pussy Riot that would express their ideas of female independence, combining activism, feminism, and punk rock music. Their defeat in court becomes their moral victory, as Pussy Riot are cheered on by thousands of their new-found fans.

«Срок» — документальный фильм режиссёров Павла Костомарова, Александра Расторгуева и журналиста Алексея Пивоварова. Фильм рассказывает о лидерах протестов, которые происходили в России после выборов президента в марте 2012 года. Среди героев картины — Алексей Навальный, Ксения Собчак, Илья Яшин, Pussy Riot, Борис Немцов, Эдуард Лимонов, Сергей Удальцов. Авторы фильма утверждают, что их работа не является летописью протестов и посвящена только фиксации мыслей и эмоций лидеров оппозиции с целью понять, «куда нас ведут те, кто ради своих убеждений готов идти на срок».

"Puss Riot and other sins" - The Putin system is taking on more and more features of the Soviet system. The big fear and paranoia returns.

In 2012 two members of anarchistic female band Pussy Riot were sentenced to two years in a Mordovian labor camp for "hooliganism motivated by religious hatred". Russian film collective Gogol’s Wives follow each step of the feminist punk band’s battle against Putin including their first disruptive performances on a trolley bus, shooting a video about transparent elections, a controversial performance in a Red Square cathedral, and footage shot in a jail cell. Support comes from many corners including Madonna who painted the words "Pussy Riot" on her back and wore a balaclava during her Moscow show. The documentary portrays the grim state of present-day Russia, a country starkly divided between conservatism and anarchy. Pussy Riot believes that art has to be free and they're willing to take it to extremes. "Pussycat made a mess in the house," they say, and the house is Russia. The filmmakers do not seek to moralize, they simply edit events and leave viewers to draw their own conclusions.

Три молодые женщины приговорены к двум годам лишения свободы в российской тюрьме за сатирическое выступление в кафедральном соборе Храм Христа Спасителя. Но кто на самом деле оказался на скамье подсудимых в деле, разделившим страну и мир за ее пределами пополам, — три молодые художницы или общество, в котором они живут?

Documentary follows Masha Alyokhina, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, and Yekaterina Samutsevich through their harsh two year sentences for playing music to their freedom.
