Navalny

This would be a very entertaining farce, if it were fictional but it isn't. It's reality and the Russian leader and the Russian media are simply that dumb.

Navalny is a very bright, very savvy person who seems willing to do whatever it takes, including dying, to see regime change in Russia.

I haven't seen a more remarkable person or movie in a very long time.

A must see.

Film about poisoning. On August 20, 2020, Alexei Navalny, a fighter against dictator Putin, was poisoned. During the investigation of the poisoning, there are both funny and sad moments. In the course of the film, there will be one call that will surprise you and the film will not disappoint. If possible, take a look.

Absolutely fantastic documentary, it will go down in history. If you wish to know who Vladimir Putin truly is, this documentary is definitely for you. This is not just about unprecedented corruption in Russian government, this is about dismantling the facade of a strong Russian leader whose primary goal and motivation is to serve his own country, this investigation reveals his true colors of greed.

Navalny became a prisoner of conscience, knowing that he will face difficulties maybe imprisonment, and he had the courage to return to Russia. He came and was detained at the airport and the trial was at the police station , disgrace to the constitution and court. The film made millions of people realise what kind of "patriot" in reality Putin is.

Greed, evil, who accidentally coming into power used it with catastrophic consequences for Russia.

At the time of writing, the average rating is a little over 5, from over 10,000 ratings. Yet all but one of the written reviews rates it 9 or more. Bizarre no? Or does someone really want this film to rate badly for political reasons? That alone should make you want to see it.

Navalny is a remarkably brave, perhaps slightly arrogant man and his story is frightening and quite incredible. He and his team are very media savvy and at times the production feels almost too slick. Can we believe everything we see in the film? I feel it would be naive to do so given how all sides tend to manipulate mainstream media to their own ends.

My biggest concern is that the crux of the film is one telephone conversation. The problem is, we have absolutely no way of verifying the identity of the voice on the phone or if there is any truth to the conversation. The documentary brushes over this point, focusing instead on the content of the conversation, which is understandable given the sensational revelations made in it. So should we as the audience just believe it and move on or question it as well as everything else the producers want us to questions? I don't know.

Overall, well worth watching.

This film has been downvoted by Russian bots. Which is one of the points of this film to begin with. Roher befriended Navalny by chance. Navalny is a shrewed social media adept politician. Roher says he was not sure if Navalny is using him in this documentary. Even that is woven in. Need to see it.
