Featured reviews
It's crazy that things like this happen in the world and for that I am grateful for living in a country where we can say anything we want. Alexei Navalny is one of the bravest persons in the world and the fact that he is literally getting tortured right now for doing the right thing blows my mind.
Synopsis: Shot as the story unfolded, NAVALNY is a fly-on-the-wall documentary thriller about anti-authoritarian Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Recovering in Berlin after nearly being poisoned to death with the nerve agent Novichok, he makes shocking discoveries about his assassination attempt and bravely decides to return home--whatever the consequences.
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.
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.

- TriviaIn a 2023 interview with GoldDerby, Daniel Roher spoke about a critical moment captured in the film where one of Alexei Navalny's alleged poisoners seems to admit involvement over the phone: "I don't speak a word of Russian, so when we were shooting that scene I didn't really understand the intricacies of what was being said. But just reading the temperature in the room, reading the facial expressions, we understood, despite our language skills, or lack of skills, we knew exactly what was happening. We knew that something explosive was being recorded. I remember filming and Maria Pevchikh's jaw, this is Navalny's chief investigator, she's depicted in the scene. Her jaw unhinges and hits the floor, and in that moment I just remember thinking to myself, 'Just keep shooting. Just keep shooting. Just. Keep. Shooting.'"
- Quotes
Alexei Navalny: Please let it be another movie. Movie #2 - Let's make a thriller out of this movie and in the case that I would be killed let's make a boring movie of memory.
