Navalny

Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has somehow survived a Novichok assassination attempt and as the charismatic politician recuperates in Germany, he sets out to investigate his would-be-killers. Enthralling and intimate, Navalny unfolds with the pace of a thriller as it follows the poisoning and the investigation – right up to its nerve-wracking final moments.

But, beyond the drama, Daniel Roher’s up-close-and-personal film is also a study of a fearless leader, intent on reform, who will ultimately board a plane right back to Russia, in the name of freedom for himself and his country.
