Summary
Inside Russia: Traitors and Heroes
Inside Russia: Traitors and Heroes documents an extraordinary year in the lives of ordinary Russians. Amidst the brutal suppression of anti-war protests across the country, a local politician condemns the war on social media. She must decide whether to face criminal charges or flee the country. A group of young graffiti artists begins a campaign of subversive art to mock the government's pro-war propaganda. Soon one of its members is arrested. It has been dangerous for ordinary Russians to speak up against Vladimir Putin's regime for years. New censorship laws, introduced since the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, have made it tougher than ever. Many thousands have fled Russia. Dissenting Russians must decide if they should flee their homeland or voice their dissent.
