Navalny

This film feels more than important right now. Following Navalny as he manages to escape being poisoned to death, to his re-entry into Russia, this is a proper behind-the-scenes look at the reality of his world, and also how his wife, children and colleagues cope with the pressures that walk alongside everything he does. There are some breakthrough moments, poignant scenes and a real contrast between old-style, repressive politics and the freer world this man is in favour of. We can only hope that his supporters at home, often young people, who want the same, continue to hold their nerve. An intense portrayal of a man I can only hope gets to run his homeland. Worthy of every award it garners, it is a great watch.
