SUMMARY:MR. NOBODY AGAINST PUTIN | FILM TALK
DESCRIPTION:On February 25\, Scandinavia House presents a special screening of the Danish nominee for Best Documentary Feature at the 98th Academy Awards: the poignant first-hand documentary Mr. Nobody Against Putin\, followed by director talks by Pasha Talankin and David Borenstein! \nIn this “must-watch\, indelible document of ideological warfare” (The Guardian)\, Pasha Talankin is an unlikely hero: a beloved Russian primary school teacher\, known as a mentor and prankster who offers students a safe haven in his office. After Russia invades Ukraine\, Pasha’s role in the school changes dramatically as he is reluctantly drawn into Putin’s propaganda machine. Forced to promote state-sanctioned messages and horrified by the militarization of his school and community\, he wrestles with guilt and a sense of powerlessness\, leading him to become an international whistleblower. \nAs the school’s videographer\, Pasha documents intimate and revealing footage of Putin’s regime\, capturing the rise of militarized children’s groups\, repressive laws\, fervent nationalism\, and the recruitment of graduating students to fight in the war. When he learns his own life may be at risk\, Pasha is forced to plan a dangerous escape from Russia. \nThe winner of the World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award at Sundance\, this uniquely collaborative film is as captivating and joyful as it is eye-opening and sobering. Mr. Nobody Against Putin showcases rare footage that reveals the profound impact of Putin’s regime on the lives of everyday Russians\, particularly its children. (Denmark & Czech Republic\, 2025. 90 min. In Danish & Russian with English subtitles) \nPurchase Tickets
