A film about Pavel Kushnir — a musician who refused to compromise, in art or in conscience. A “great little man,” as his friends describe him, Pavel played sublime music for two elderly women in an empty community hall with the same devotion he would have brought to Carnegie Hall. He wrote extraordinary novels and dared to protest, fully aware of the consequences. In 2024, Pavel Kushnir died in a prison in Birobidzhan.

Until recently, 21-year-old Timofey Anufriev — the son of renowned artist Sergey Anufriev — was an ordinary student in St. Petersburg.

His name is Fyodor. This name is well known to many LGBTQ refugees. He helped, supported, and guided people. Many trusted him. And then everything collapsed. Dozens of victims, accusations of fraud and lies, episodes from the past under the surnames Ugolkov and Fain. This film is the story of my friend Valya, who, at a difficult moment in her life, trusted Fyodor and lost time, money, and a part of herself.

Relatives of soldiers killed in Russia’s war against Ukraine are entitled to compensation — insurance payments, regional grants, and so-called “presidential” benefits. Altogether, the sum amounts to around 14 million rubles, divided among the closest family members. This film tells the stories of three women — Oksana Nazarenko from Karachay-Cherkessia, Natalia Makarova from St. Petersburg, and Anastasia Yudina from the Leningrad region. They are taking the fathers of their sons to court over the payouts, arguing that these men did not raise the children and were absent from their lives after divorce. For us, this is not a film about money, but about the psychology of many Russian families — where the figure of an absent father was replaced by cadet “brotherhood,” and poverty was compensated by the dream of a military career for a child.

An invitation to experience the thrill of spinning, jumping, skimming, and dancing on winged feet. The film shows how Canada's champions do it. Maria and Otto Jelinek, Don Jackson, Wendy Griner and Don McPherson appear briefly in dazzling exhibition, but the main object of the film is to show that figure skating is for everyone--children, young people, and adults.

The documentary film explores a top-secret Russian government experiment involving the recruitment and deployment of prisoners to the war in Ukraine. This investigation vividly exposes the brutal cruelty of the Russian military machine and the Kremlin’s disregard for legality and human rights. The film reveals previously unknown details of one of the most ruthless and cynical military projects of the 21st century, based on the analysis of several hundred Ministry of Defense documents, as well as testimonies from the soldiers themselves, their relatives, and publicly available data.

In March 2022, after Russian forces occupied the Ukrainian city of Bucha, dozens of civilians were killed on Yablunska Street over the course of three days. Russian authorities later claimed that the footage of the massacre had been staged. However, testimony from survivors indicates that many civilians were not killed accidentally — they were deliberately targeted. Using CCTV recordings, drone footage, and military documents, the Ukrainian Service of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reconstructed a detailed account of the bloodiest days on Yablunska Street and identified some of the officers involved in these crimes.

In the seventh episode of Silent Rock ’n’ Roll, Mikhail Kozyrev traces the reverse evolution of Russian chanson — from the songs of Galich, Okudzhava, and Vysotsky to contemporary performers such as Grigory Leps, Stas Mikhailov, and Vika Tsyganova. He examines the widespread support for the war among chanson artists and explores the reasons behind the enduring popularity of the criminal-themed genre in Russia.
