About Mr. Nobody Against Putin
As Russia launches its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, primary schools across Russia’s hinterlands are transformed into recruitment stages for the war. Facing the ethical dilemma of working in a system defined by propaganda and violence, a brave teacher goes undercover to film what’s really happening in his own school.
Directed by David Borenstein, Mr. Nobody Against Putin leans on a strong ensemble — Pavel Talankin, Vladimir Putin, Roman Abalin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2025.
