About the film

Russia, early 1990s. Amid post-Soviet chaos, a brilliant young man, Vadim Baranov, charts his path. First an artist, then a reality TV producer, he becomes the spin doctor to a rising KGB agent: Vladimir Putin. At the heart of power, Baranov shapes the new Russia, blurring the boundaries between truth and lies, belief and manipulation. Only the magnetic Ksenia is beyond his control, tempting him away from this dangerous game. Years later, after retreating into silence and shrouded in mystery, Baranov finally opens up, revealing the dark secrets of the regime he helped build.

Based on the bestselling novel of the same name, the film is directed by Olivier Assayas (Personal Shopper, Clouds of Sils Maria). Starring two-time Oscar-nominated Jude Law (The Talented Mr Ripley), Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine), Alicia Vikander (The Danish Girl), Jeffrey Wright (American Fiction) and Tom Sturridge (The Sandman).
