Cert 15A

Film Synopsis | A young Russian filmmaker becomes an unlikely advisor to Vladimir Putin as he rises to power in post-Soviet Russia, navigating the new era's complexities and chaos.

Olivier Assayas’s adaptation of Giuliano Da Empoli’s novel – a thinly veiled portrait of Vladislav Surkov, renamed Vadim Baranov, Vladimir Putin’s adviser in chief – is a gripping delineation of an impactful period in modern world history. The narrative is framed through the eyes of an unnamed American writer (Jeffrey Wright), who crosses paths with Baranov while in Moscow for research and hears his story. First an artist, then a reality TV producer, he becomes spin doctor to Putin (Jude Law), then a rising KGB agent.

Cert 15A | Films classified 15A have been deemed appropriate for viewers aged 15 and over. However, they can also be seen by younger children, provided they are accompanied by an adult who has deemed the film appropriate viewing for that child.
