Mr. Nobody Against Putin

This is quite incredible. This film gives us an intimate and harrowing look into the horrors of propagandizing education and the heartbreaking effects it has. It is so powerful to see someone with a unique position step up and gain the courage to do something. Talankin risks so much to make a statement and show the world what is happening behind closed doors and does so with such care and intentionality. The film is so inspiring and upsetting all in one and I hope viewers can see how relevant this is to today’s world, and not just in Russia.

This unassuming, novice videographer becomes a filmmaker overnight delivering a perspective on a war that most don’t get a chance to see. It’s organic and raw, building unintentional tension. It makes you think how fragile democracy is and how quickly things can become abnormal

Reminder the power that freedom of speech has. Militarization of children born into their situation makes me sick. Reminiscing on my favorite teachers and hope his students feel the same way for speaking out.

Surprised this was Academy Award winning when I found the other documentaries more compelling, but nonetheless still an incredible look inside a Russian school after the start of their war. The propaganda progression is continuously fascinating.
