Navalny, made in secret, details the harrowing ordeal of Alexei Navalny, the Russian opposition leader poisoned with novichok.
“If you’re coming in with a blank slate, then Navalny is a feast of evermore unbelievable details and a window into a movement against a state of increasingly boldfaced, demeaning lies. It’s a story that ends in midseason – following his celebrated return to Russia in January 2021, Navalny was arrested and remains in a penal colony 60 miles east of Moscow. But given the scenes of jubilance that greeted his survival and return, and the confidence with which Navalny speaks to Roher here, the film offers hope for a brighter, freer future in Russia amid the ongoing shock of state cruelty.” – The Guardian
