Episode #1 The Crackdown

  • Summary

  • Alexei Navalny’s new home is around 100 kilometres from Moscow, at the end of a muddy path, on the outskirts of the small town of Pokrov. A year after his poisoning, the main opponent to Vladimir Putin lives in a high-security prison. His anti-corruption foundation is banned. Many of his allies are in exile, independent media are closing down and a ‘climate of fear’ reigns among his supporters.

     

    With interviews of  Konstantin Kotov, former prisoner and opponent; Ivan Pavlov, lawyer for the Navalny Foundation; Ekaterina Schulmann, political scientist; Piotr Tolstoy, vice-president of the State Duma;  Armen Aramyan, journalist at student paper Doxa in Moscow.
