About Limonov: The Ballad
A revolutionary militant, a thug, an underground writer, a butler to a millionaire in Manhattan. But also a switchblade-waving poet, a lover of beautiful women, a warmonger, a political agitator, and a novelist who wrote of his greatness. Eduard Limonov’s life story is a journey through Russia, America, and Europe during the second half of the 20th century.
Directed by Kirill Serebrennikov, Limonov: The Ballad leans on a strong ensemble — Ben Whishaw, Viktoriya Miroshnichenko, Masha Mashkova — 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 history titles of 2024.
