Synopsis:

In the chaos of post-Soviet Russia, rising KGB officer Vladimir Putin joins forces with master manipulator Vadim Baranov to reshape life behind the Iron Curtain, using violence and deception to change the world forever.

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.

As a new Russia emerges from the Soviet Union, a gifted young artist is drawn into the volatile political scene. He leverages his creativity into strategic influence as he works on the public image of the ascendant Vladimir Putin.
When the lines between truth and manipulation begin to blur, his ascent into the Kremlin?s inner circle exposes the personal and political costs of shaping a new national narrative.
