00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.640
Come on, come on, come on, come on!
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:27.159
There you go.
My goodness!
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:31.400
Five, six.
You can't do that!
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:33.760
It's going to fall if you do that.
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:40.640
Mum, you are going to break it!
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:44.319
What am I going to break?
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:45.840
Tada!
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:50.519
Come on, come on, come on, come on!
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.519
Dunno, they won't detach...
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:45.000
Anya, can you look at us, please?
00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:51.840
Can everybody please stand up?
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:58.919
By decree of the City of Moscow
on the 9th of August...
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:04.039
defendant Ms Pavlikova is accused of
committing a particularly serious crime,
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.199
the violent overthrow of
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:08.479
the constitutional order
of the Russian Federation
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:10.560
connected with organisation
of an extremist group
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.400
committed by a number of people
as a result of collusion...
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:16.000
... imprisonment for over three years.
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:20.680
Considering her role in
alleged offence...
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:26.759
...committing the crime ...
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:31.840
Another high-profile case about
extremism, this time in Moscow.
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:35.400
Participants of a virtually unknown
"New Greatness" movement
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:36.759
were arrested in the city
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:40.319
and are accused of
organising an extremist group.
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:44.960
The investigators claim
that participants of this group
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.520
were planning to overthrow
the Russian government.
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:52.479
Anna Pavlikova is one of the defendants
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:55.280
in the case of the
"New Greatness" group.
00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:59.360
Even though the young woman is underage,
just 17 years old,
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:04.360
she has been imprisoned with five other
detainees whilst awaiting sentence.
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:10.800
Mum.
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:17.480
Political persecution in my country
has long become common practice.
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.600
Before directing its aggression
outside of the country,
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:26.079
our government has been
systematically obliterating
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.439
any dissent inside the country.
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:34.800
We have got used to living in fear.
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:41.040
Fear has made us
obedient and indifferent.
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:45.600
In order to document these
important processes
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.160
which are taking place in our society,
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:52.399
I started making a film
about the "New Greatness" case.
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:07.399
Human rights activists and solicitors
of those under arrest
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.800
organised a press-conference.
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:16.439
It was here that I first met
Anna Pavlikova's parents.
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:24.079
I'll be quick, I only need two minutes.
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:27.800
Good afternoon, dear journalists!
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:33.240
Some background information for those
who might not know what's going on.
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:38.079
The investigation has revealed that
the organisation has 13 members.
00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:40.959
Three of these are undercover agents,
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:45.839
the other ten are members of this
organisation, and at the moment,
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:50.199
four of them are under house arrest
and six are in custody.
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:54.319
Out of the six who are in custody,
two are female and four are male.
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:59.199
Normally, an undercover operation
is conducted in order to infiltrate
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:05.120
an existing criminal organisation,
group or community.
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:07.079
But here,
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:10.800
before the Federal Security Service
and law enforcement agencies arrived
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:13.279
there was nothing here at all.
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.360
This organisation,
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.800
the so-called extremist community,
did not exist.
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.560
Just to clarify,
which will be my final comment,
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:26.519
they created it themselves,
organised it themselves,
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:29.959
conducted all the activity themselves,
and then reported all its members.
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.439
These are the new technologies
of the security services,
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:37.000
and this is the first example
of their use.
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:44.199
I would like to describe
the way she was arrested.
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.279
Of course, it was terrible.
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:49.319
Dmitry Victorovich. Dmitry Victorovich.
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:52.199
It was terrible.
00:07:52.839 --> 00:07:55.000
I'll start from the beginning.
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:59.920
At about 05:20 am, the doorbell rang.
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.000
"Police! Open up!"
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.120
Anya's dad's story
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:12.680
reminded me the story of my
great-grandmother.
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:18.319
When I was little, she often told me
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:19.959
how at night, in the bathroom,
00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:23.720
she burnt foreign books
whilst waiting for her arrest.
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:29.519
At the end,
she always said the same thing.
00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:35.399
"Today, they came for my neighbour.
Tomorrow, they will come for me."
00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:39.960
Miraculously, she escaped arrest
during Stalin's rule,
00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:44.159
but the fear she experienced stayed
with her for the rest of her life.
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:47.960
I was a child then,
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:51.159
and although I didn't know exactly who
she was scared of,
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:54.320
I imagined that at night Stalin,
with his big moustache,
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.279
would climb out of my wardrobe
00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:59.320
and take me away
to his terrible kingdom.
00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:42.440
Don't worry, stop swearing,
I've got something for you right here.
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.639
Yes, my little Lemon?
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:01.559
When Anya used to come up to him,
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.080
he would stick his head out,
as if asking her to stroke him.
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:08.799
Do you remember, Dima?
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:31.600
Before her arrest, Anya was planning
to study biology at university.
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:38.159
She was preparing for exams,
working at a veterinary clinic
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:42.720
and started looking for like-minded
friends on the internet.
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:48.799
Someone invited her to join
a chat called "New Greatness".
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.960
People chatted about anything there,
music, ecology and politics.
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:19.799
Some of the chat members
started meeting up at a cafe
00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:21.720
and going for walks in Moscow.
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:29.600
Soon, one of them suggested renting a
place so they had somewhere to meet.
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:45.759
The meetings were attended
by all sorts of people,
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:50.720
teenagers, students and people who were
just looking for someone to talk to.
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.440
They weren't political activists,
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.399
perhaps just dissatisfied with
the general situation in the country.
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:05.840
Anya made lots of new friends.
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.159
None of them suspected
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:14.480
there were hidden surveillance cameras
operating in the room.
00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.679
Do you know what I was
always interested in?
00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:26.759
I was always interested in
seeing other planets,
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:29.399
seeing animals and plants
from another planet.
00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:31.720
I think there wouldn't be
much difference,
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:33.960
same principles would
apply there as well.
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:36.039
I don't think...
00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:39.039
- Would you like a chocolate?
- Thanks.
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:41.799
- There's three more.
- Yes, please.
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:45.000
- These are chocolates?
- Yes, they are, but...
00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:50.320
Oh, I see, it's a picture of a bear.
I thought it was a toy.
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:55.279
I just find it very interesting.
00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:57.639
I thought they found life somewhere
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.240
that didn't need
water or carbon to exist.
00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:06.200
Anyway, we would never see it
because we can't fly that far.
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:09.320
Hold on, fly where exactly?
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:13.960
- Kostilenkov Ruslan Dmitrievich.
- What is the reason for your arrest?
00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:16.799
The creation of the "New Greatness"
organisation.
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:19.159
What are the goals of this organisation?
00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:20.960
The goal of the organisation
00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:24.120
was to establish order on the territory
of Russian Federation,
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:27.799
organising tribunals over
members of the ruling elite,
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:33.279
abolition of current
repressive laws and constitution.
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.399
What did you do to achieve these goals?
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:42.159
We were planning to organise meetings,
participate in meetings,
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:48.240
take direct action against
law enforcement personnel.
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:50.480
How did you prepare for this?
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:56.559
For this purpose,
we attended shooting practice
00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.799
and Molotov cocktail throwing practice.
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:06.399
Mr Kostilenkov's admission,
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:08.879
recorded while
being detained by police,
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:12.639
was published on
the pro-government Telegram channel
00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:14.919
and immediately went viral.
00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:19.919
Six detainees, including Anya,
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:23.159
were kept in custody until the verdict
was announced.
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:29.360
In a cell designed for 20 people,
00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:32.600
Anya was staying with 50 women.
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:38.840
Her health was deteriorating day by day.
00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:56.399
"PRISON FOOD PARCELS
RECEPTION POINT"
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.320
- Is that it?
- Follow that guy, they said.
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:09.559
One moment, I just need
to finish completing the form.
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:14.279
You are right after that guy,
hurry up.
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:21.480
Mum.
00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:24.519
- No, I don't need that much.
- Thank you...
00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:29.559
That's all that's available
at the moment.
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:33.480
What should I do then?
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:34.879
Well...
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.320
You have used up your limit.
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:46.840
Why? I calculated that there should be six kilos left.
00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:51.960
- What does that mean?
- Next in line.
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:54.440
They add everything up,
if you bought in the shop.
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:57.799
So, I can't send the parcel now?
00:15:57.960 --> 00:16:01.360
Which shop do you mean?
00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:04.720
She said next in line,
so you need to go.
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:08.080
Pavlikova Anya,
I had 14 kilos first time...
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:09.960
I am not interested.
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:14.200
...and 10 the second time.
I have two...
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:24.399
Do I have to carry it all back now?
00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:26.519
They said, "Five kilos".
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:30.840
What five kilos? I don't understand.
I only sent two parcels.
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:36.919
I should still have 6 kilos left.
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:38.519
What am I supposed to...?
00:17:19.240 --> 00:17:25.240
I had a similar idea about...
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:28.960
According to the materials of the case,
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:32.559
two undercover agents
operated inside the group.
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:40.200
One of them was criminal investigation
officer, Sergei Kuznetsov.
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:47.680
The other one was Maxim Daniltsev,
a military establishment officer.
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:54.200
Both of them joined the group
one month before the arrests.
00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:00.880
According to the defence, however,
there was also a third undercover agent.
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:05.079
From the beginning, he appeared
in the general Telegram chats
00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:07.920
under the nickname of Ruslan D.
00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:14.200
Because he was older than the others,
he quickly gained authority.
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:19.519
He encouraged other chat members
to regularly meet in person
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:24.319
and distribute leaflets
containing political slogans.
00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:30.359
This way, from a chat in Telegram,
the "New Greatness" movement is born.
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:40.880
There are over 300 leaflets here.
00:18:43.559 --> 00:18:47.599
I didn't realise
there would be so many people.
00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:50.279
- How many are there? 200 something?
- Yes.
00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:52.680
Let's look at this first.
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:57.599
Guys, look at these leaflets we have
here. Putin behind bars.
00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:02.799
Guys, take a look at the leaflet,
where Putin is in a cage. Who likes it?
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:05.880
- I like it.
- I always like it.
00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:14.079
OK, good. What's next?
00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:23.240
Hello.
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:30.839
Establishing an order on the territory
of the Russian Federation,
00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:32.599
organisation of a tribunal.
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:37.680
Can you comment on how this video was
made, what were the circumstances?
00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:41.519
In addition to being punched
and kicked all over his body,
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:44.799
a metal meat mallet from the kitchen
00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:47.759
was inserted into his anus.
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:50.079
This was done by
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:53.880
the police officers, who were doing the search.
00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:55.559
They took him to the kitchen
00:19:55.720 --> 00:20:00.039
and committed these acts of violence
using the mallet.
00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:05.200
This caused severe haemorrhaging,
he was experiencing excruciating pain
00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:08.599
while he was being transferred
from the place of the search
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:10.400
to the police station.
00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:12.119
This lasted for several hours,
00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:14.680
and later on, when he was brought
to the police station
00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:16.559
there was no solicitor.
00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:20.680
Two officers were present
in the room, they were beating him.
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:25.920
In fact, they dictated the text of the
statements which he gave.
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:29.559
These were the circumstances.
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:34.960
What were you doing to achieve these
goals? What were you planning to do?
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:37.039
We were planning to organise...
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:55.759
- Do you meet up with Anya?
- Yes.
00:20:55.920 --> 00:21:00.440
You do.
She doesn't want to tell on anyone.
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:05.279
No. What's there even to confess?
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:07.319
If a directive is sent from above
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:10.000
to put somebody away,
somebody will do that.
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:12.960
Even if there is the law says otherwise
00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:15.640
the court will still rule
to put them away,
00:21:16.039 --> 00:21:19.119
so that she starts co-operating,
grassing everyone up,
00:21:19.640 --> 00:21:22.440
to prepare her to act as a witness,
00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:25.039
whisper things to the detective,
that's it.
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:28.279
Then they would start working with her.
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:33.119
Because you don't know if
somebody hasn't told on her, do you?
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:44.599
"MOSCOW CITY COURT"
00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:19.240
... to conduct investigation
to get an expert opinion...
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:23.799
Your Honour,
can you please use the microphone?
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:25.720
we can't hear you.
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:31.880
... evidence...
in this criminal case...
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:37.920
... proof...
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:43.440
...no medical reasons against
being kept in custody...
00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:47.319
...intentionally committing
very serious crimes...
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:50.480
overthrowing the order
of the Russian Federation,
00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:54.880
organising an extremist group,
conducted by a group of people...
00:22:55.039 --> 00:23:00.839
...provided for imprisonment...
00:23:13.119 --> 00:23:18.799
...the hearing is closed...
00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:22.279
Ms Pavlikova, do you understand
the court's verdict?
00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:25.119
- Yes.
- This court hearing is adjourned.
00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:30.839
Disgrace! Disgrace!
00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:35.279
Video recording is over,
operators need to leave the court room.
00:23:35.880 --> 00:23:38.960
- Anechka, I love you!
- Anyuta, be strong!
00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:43.519
Anyuta, I will come and see you
on the first of August.
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:47.319
You promised to let us talk to her!
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:50.319
Cameramans, stop filming!
00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:52.039
- You promised!
- You promised!
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:23.799
Journalist Vasily Polonsky has been
following this case from the very start.
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:28.720
He has been gathering information on
Ruslan D
00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:30.920
for the purposes of his
own investigation.
00:24:41.480 --> 00:24:43.319
This is Ruslan D.
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:51.359
Carefully undoing his coat
and laying everything out.
00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:57.839
All familiar faces.
This is Anna Pavlikova, I think.
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:03.880
This is Kostilenkov.
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:12.680
Yes, it's quite unbelievable,
you see - all the documents
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:14.839
were laid out for him by Ruslan D.
00:25:17.839 --> 00:25:20.680
He is laying everything out
for Kostilenkov,
00:25:20.839 --> 00:25:22.640
writing something down for him.
00:25:25.359 --> 00:25:27.960
Another question regarding departments.
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:31.920
Does everyone understand the way
departments have been distributed?
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:34.319
I don't, I was going to be...
00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:38.839
I propose to appoint Doctor as
deputy head of the legal department
00:25:39.000 --> 00:25:41.519
responsible for
the legal protection issues.
00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:45.519
Doctor, will you be able
to establish contacts...
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:50.799
Most probably, Ruslan D has chosen
this nickname
00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:56.799
to become Kostylenkov's doppelganger.
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:59.799
Has this been a set up
from the very beginning
00:25:59.960 --> 00:26:01.799
or at some point he decided to...?
00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:06.279
The problem is that from those videos,
00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:09.720
it's impossible to tell
if somebody is an FSB agent.
00:26:09.880 --> 00:26:12.640
This is the main problem in this case.
00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:18.680
OK, he is signing things, laying things
out, but he looks like a normal person.
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:45.519
These are the portfolios,
the authors you can see...
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:52.279
It seems like all of us
have been affected by the same disaster.
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:54.000
This disaster is
00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:57.720
that our children, husbands, loved ones
have been imprisoned.
00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:03.240
I am the mum of Rinat Nurluganov,
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:07.839
who has been sentenced to 24 years
at a maximum-security penal colony.
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:12.720
He and his fellows declined to testify against themselves,
so they started to get tortured.
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.359
Each of them was shown a broomstick
with a condom on the end
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:21.480
and told they will get raped
with the broomstick,
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:27.559
sent to the colony, and when they get
there they will be known as 'downcasts'.
00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:33.240
The only thing my brother's case is built upon
is confessionary evidence.
00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:40.559
He was tortured with electricity,
the so-called "dynamo machine"
00:27:40.720 --> 00:27:45.960
when electric wires are connected
to fingers, toes, etc.
00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:55.400
My son is on a dry hunger strike now
00:27:55.559 --> 00:27:59.279
in support of political prisoners.
00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:04.480
And he won't give in, you see?
He is on the verge of death.
00:28:13.000 --> 00:28:18.400
My son is a hero,
I am very proud of him.
00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:23.319
What is my son guilty of?
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:27.119
He is guilty of having grown up
as an honest, conscientious,
00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:29.279
kind-hearted person.
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:35.920
Somebody would really like for such...
for our children to be locked in jail.
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:40.920
It's very sad.
I can't talk any more…
00:29:01.880 --> 00:29:06.359
"FREEDOM TO ANYA PAVLIKOVA!"
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.599
What have you got in there?
Open the bag as well.
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:30.079
- I've just been searched!
- Open the bag. Can I see your placard again?
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.519
- Is it the same topic?
- It does. "Let her go home".
00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:39.680
- You have a sign saying, "Stop FSB".
- What do you mean, "Stop FSB"?
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:42.880
- How can you explain this?
They don't want to let me in.
00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:45.599
No, I just want to know!
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:47.400
It's just saying "Let Anya go home".
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:49.440
Is the "Stop FSB" slogan approved today?
00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:53.000
Wait a minute, please.
Is this sign approved?
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:56.279
These are her parents.
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:02.400
At least you go.
00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:16.480
I am now inviting Julia Pavlikova,
Anya Pavlikova's mother.
00:30:20.319 --> 00:30:24.880
Good afternoon, everyone!
Thank you all for coming.
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:27.079
I am Anya Pavlikova's mum.
00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:31.759
On the 15th of March, security service
agents stormed into our apartment.
00:30:31.920 --> 00:30:36.039
They were wearing masks, armed with
machine guns, there were lots of them.
00:30:36.200 --> 00:30:41.799
My daughter has been interrogated
for many hours, she was bullied,
00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:46.000
asked to confess to something,
driven to tears,
00:30:46.160 --> 00:30:49.519
constantly sworn at, it was terrible!
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:54.920
Since 16th of March, our children
have been in custody.
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:58.000
There are 47 people per cell.
The girls don't smoke,
00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:03.559
their chronic conditions have worsened,
they are really struggling in there.
00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:05.960
The courts are deaf to our appeals.
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:10.160
All their documents has been seized
under the pretext that they can help escape.
00:31:10.319 --> 00:31:13.839
That's why they are still in prison.
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:18.599
Disgrace! Disgrace! Disgrace!
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:21.079
Death to Putin's gang!
00:31:21.240 --> 00:31:24.799
New Bastille!
00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:29.640
We mustn't be afraid! We need to fight
for our children and our rights!
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:32.720
We will win only if we are together!
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:38.279
Thank you very much.
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:42.000
Now I am going to invite Askold Kurov,
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:45.119
who made a documentary
about Oleg Sentsov.
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:46.440
"FREEDOM TO ANNA PAVLIKOVA"
00:32:58.119 --> 00:33:00.400
Human rights activist Kostya Kotov
00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:03.319
actively joined the campaign
of support for Anya
00:33:03.480 --> 00:33:05.400
and other defendants in the case.
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:16.759
He started writing letters
to Anya in prison
00:33:16.920 --> 00:33:19.720
and became a close friend
to her and her family.
00:33:33.640 --> 00:33:35.720
Kostya!
00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:45.119
- You can open it.
- Do you have your passport?
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:09.159
- How long are you planning to stay?
- About two hours,
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:13.480
someone will also join us.
00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:25.360
"THE NEW GREATNESS CASE.
UP TO 10 YEARS OF PRISON. STOP FSB."
00:34:56.199 --> 00:34:59.840
In order to declare a group of people
an extremist community,
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.159
all prosecution needs to do
00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:06.079
is prove that the group
meets several formal criteria.
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:12.440
The group needs to seem united.
00:35:14.440 --> 00:35:18.679
It needs to have a political
programme and structure,
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:23.159
recorded in a document like a charter.
00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:33.559
- Are these copies of the charter?
- Yes.
00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:36.559
- Shall I distribute them to everyone?
- Well, yeah.
00:35:36.719 --> 00:35:40.119
- Do you have one?
- We have more than enough.
00:35:41.679 --> 00:35:45.199
At least one for each desk.
00:35:54.599 --> 00:35:58.760
- We forget about our political programme!
- I didn't get it.
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.000
Our political programme
hasn't been approved yet.
00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:03.000
Oh, it's the political programme,
yeah!
00:36:03.639 --> 00:36:07.559
Can newbies take part depending on
whether they like certain things or not?
00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:13.039
I might... well, I'll ask their opinion,
but that's how it is at the moment.
00:36:13.199 --> 00:36:14.599
Let's get things organised.
00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:17.440
If a person joins the chat and listens
to the programme,
00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:19.880
if they agree with the programme and
like it,
00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:23.280
if they are prepared to pay
the subscription, then they can join.
00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:26.559
Simple as that.
Things are organised properly.
00:36:26.719 --> 00:36:30.559
Undoubtedly, the main hurdles on the
course of building a civil society
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:34.320
are corruption and enemies within
who help spread it.
00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:36.400
Here we are talking about
the president...
00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:40.440
Well it starts to be serious here.
We have full names of…
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:42.840
We are talking about president
Vladimir Putin,
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.280
his party "United Russia"
and their allies.
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:47.159
Their criminal corrupt system,
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:50.280
which they built and maintain to serve
their personal interests.
00:36:50.440 --> 00:36:54.159
Each member of these organisations
found guilty of taking bribes, genocide,
00:36:54.320 --> 00:36:57.320
violation of citizens' rights,
and any other breach of legislation
00:36:57.480 --> 00:36:58.880
of the Russian Federation
00:36:59.039 --> 00:37:01.239
and universally recognised human rights,
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:05.480
needs to be subjected to fair punishment
in line with severity of the offence.
00:37:05.639 --> 00:37:08.360
OK, wait a second.
00:37:08.519 --> 00:37:13.960
On the whole, without doing into
details, does the first goal sound OK?
00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:16.039
Well, yeah.
00:37:22.119 --> 00:37:23.800
We are here until nine.
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:29.039
According to materials of the case,
Ruslan D. is the main witness.
00:37:29.199 --> 00:37:31.679
He was the one who informed the police
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:35.599
about this dangerous extremist
community.
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:39.400
He also presented evidence
which he collected himself,
00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:42.159
including surveillance cameras footage,
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:44.960
the charter,
and recordings of conversations.
00:37:47.760 --> 00:37:51.760
Following that, all members apart
from Ruslan D. were arrested.
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:23.519
The case was increasingly
getting more media coverage,
00:38:23.679 --> 00:38:28.119
and Anya's unicorn
became a symbol of protest.
00:38:29.199 --> 00:38:32.119
Activists and human rights defenders
organised a rally
00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:34.000
in support of those arrested.
00:38:34.159 --> 00:38:36.880
Authorities did not authorise
this rally.
00:38:40.880 --> 00:38:43.880
- I don't think they will arrest anyone...
- No, why would they?
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:48.800
- Like on the 5th of May...
- No, I don't think they will.
00:38:48.960 --> 00:38:52.400
- I hope so too.
- Everything will be OK, I'm sure.
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:57.679
- What do organisers get?
- Thirty thousand roubles.
00:38:57.840 --> 00:38:58.840
A fine?
00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:02.800
A fine for organising
an unauthorised meeting.
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:07.760
I see. Could they apply this to anyone
who did a repost, for example?
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:11.960
Thirty thousand? I doubt it, I think
they only target the main organisers.
00:39:37.639 --> 00:39:41.960
Surprisingly, no arrests
were made that day.
00:39:42.840 --> 00:39:44.960
But this turned out
to be the last rally
00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:48.159
where people could freely
express their disagreement.
00:40:03.239 --> 00:40:06.360
Don't walk on the road!
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:09.480
Everyone needs to get on the pavement!
00:40:11.199 --> 00:40:16.599
Cross the road
via the pedestrian subway!
00:40:31.239 --> 00:40:35.239
"THE SUPREME COURT OF RUSSIA"
00:40:42.360 --> 00:40:47.119
I am trying to find you,
but I can't see you yet.
00:40:47.280 --> 00:40:53.000
Freedom! Freedom!
Freedom! Freedom!
00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:57.719
I can't see her.
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:02.000
We've been looking for you too.
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:05.960
During the rally,
they received information
00:41:06.119 --> 00:41:07.400
that the prosecution
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:11.079
requested to hold an unscheduled court
hearing the next day.
00:41:12.679 --> 00:41:15.920
You know what time the convoy is?
00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:19.800
Look like the court hearing will
take place tomorrow afternoon.
00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:22.559
- Is Kostya going with you?
- Yes.
00:41:22.719 --> 00:41:25.400
Stay together at all times, please.
I can't always be there, OK?
00:41:25.559 --> 00:41:26.559
OK.
00:41:26.719 --> 00:41:31.320
Try and get some sleep tonight,
and I'll see you tomorrow.
00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:33.280
- Agreed?
- Yes.
00:41:34.639 --> 00:41:37.239
I am grateful to everyone who came here
to show their support.
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:40.920
Only thanks to your support...
00:41:41.079 --> 00:41:43.920
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
00:41:44.079 --> 00:41:47.800
Freedom to political prisoners!
00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:51.400
Freedom to political prisoners!
00:41:51.559 --> 00:41:57.440
Freedom to Anna Pavlikova!
00:41:59.079 --> 00:42:04.719
Freedom to Anna Pavlikova!
00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:14.519
... participating...
article 282... part 2 of article 282...
00:43:14.679 --> 00:43:16.760
...allow parents to give proper guarantees.
00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:22.760
Hooray!
00:43:26.639 --> 00:43:32.480
Not yet, let Kostya get her out,
she's not feeling very well.
00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:36.880
Can we take her home straight away?
00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:41.000
- I can't believe it.
- Can we take her back in our car?
00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:54.480
Don't cry.
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:56.440
Everything's OK.
00:43:56.599 --> 00:44:00.039
Anechka, congratulations!
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:11.400
Can you tell the camera
how you are feeling?
00:44:12.519 --> 00:44:14.199
She is not allowed to talk.
00:44:14.360 --> 00:44:15.800
She can't talk about the case.
00:44:18.840 --> 00:44:22.480
Sasha, where are you?
We are right here, by the gate.
00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:28.559
Anya was placed under house arrest
whilst awaiting sentencing.
00:44:29.679 --> 00:44:32.480
Meanwhile,
hearings of the case continued.
00:44:32.639 --> 00:44:36.119
She was still expecting to get
up to 10 years imprisonment.
00:45:33.039 --> 00:45:35.719
Why are you not eating anything, Anya?
00:45:35.880 --> 00:45:39.039
I got up at 7 am and already
had breakfast.
00:45:44.320 --> 00:45:49.800
How can you fall asleep at 3 am
and get up at 7 am?
00:45:50.960 --> 00:45:54.920
I can't sleep very well.
00:45:55.079 --> 00:45:57.639
She just can't sleep anymore.
00:45:59.239 --> 00:46:01.800
- This pie doesn't look great, mum.
00:46:02.320 --> 00:46:05.880
- Yea, don't even try it, Nastya, we will have more left.
00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:13.559
I wanted to do breakfast for you,
but you were asleep.
00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:16.639
You should have woken me up.
00:46:16.800 --> 00:46:18.800
You sleep if you want to. I get up at
seven.
00:46:18.960 --> 00:46:22.679
- Tea or coffee, anyone?
- I'd like a coffee.
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:30.679
Whilst under house arrest,
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:35.199
Anya is not allowed to leave her house
without official permission
00:46:35.360 --> 00:46:38.199
or use the internet or telephone.
00:46:39.199 --> 00:46:45.119
For even a minor breach of rules,
Anya will be moved back to prison.
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.320
At any moment
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:51.360
police can come with to check whether
Anya is observing the rules.
00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:08.400
In the room!
Hide the camera!
00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:35.199
It became too dangerous
to carry on filming Anya at home,
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:37.760
so I gave the camera to Julia.
00:47:44.159 --> 00:47:48.159
Anya is trying to recover her leg, right?
00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:59.000
- Anya!
- Yes?
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:03.639
- Is everything OK?
- Yes.
00:48:31.639 --> 00:48:33.840
Are you taking a lot at the moment?
00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:35.159
Well, yeah.
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:37.679
Everything that you were prescribed,
right?
00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:42.920
I shall also take the ones
for the heart.
00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:58.159
After staying in prison, Anya started
getting heart problems and depression.
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:02.960
She got permission to be
hospitalised.
00:49:19.000 --> 00:49:21.639
OK, come on, pour it out.
00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:29.000
We had 8 litres of engine oil.
00:49:33.519 --> 00:49:36.199
This footage was recorded by
Ruslan D with a secret camera
00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:39.519
which was hidden inside his coat.
00:49:41.079 --> 00:49:44.440
It was then used as main evidence
00:49:44.599 --> 00:49:47.760
that the group was planning to
conduct violent action.
00:49:49.079 --> 00:49:51.599
Anya didn't see anything wrong
00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:54.760
with getting into an abandoned building
with her friends
00:49:54.920 --> 00:49:58.400
and throwing bottles against a wall.
00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:03.679
Kostilenkov did an open post on
Facebook, inviting friends to join.
00:50:03.840 --> 00:50:05.679
They were saying,
"We'd like to have a go".
00:50:05.840 --> 00:50:07.800
Come on, cut some more.
00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:11.960
You know what else we can do?
00:50:13.360 --> 00:50:18.559
Damn. We do need to learn how to throw
them, but also how to make them fast.
00:50:19.199 --> 00:50:22.679
It's ready. Gimme a lighter.
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:35.000
Excellent! Hit him on the fucking nose!
00:50:37.639 --> 00:50:39.280
It burns really well.
00:50:44.679 --> 00:50:49.679
Pavel Rebrovsky, one of defendants,
was kept under house arrest.
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:53.360
A separate criminal case was conducted
against him.
00:50:53.519 --> 00:50:56.280
Hearings against him also took place separately.
00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:08.639
After being subjected to duress
for many months
00:51:08.800 --> 00:51:11.239
and in exchange
for a conditional sentence,
00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:14.880
Rebrovsky gave evidence against other
members.
00:51:16.679 --> 00:51:18.920
As part of his testimony,
he claimed that
00:51:19.039 --> 00:51:21.559
the group was planning attacks
00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:23.960
on the offices of "United Russia" political party.
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:29.280
This testimony allowed the court to
declare the organisation as terrorist
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:34.239
and sentence other members to 25 years
at high security prison.
00:51:37.239 --> 00:51:39.960
Instead of the promised
conditional sentence,
00:51:40.119 --> 00:51:43.480
Rebrovsky was sentenced
to 4 years imprisonment.
00:51:49.599 --> 00:51:52.840
I can't understand why Rebrovsky
was given a prison sentence
00:51:53.000 --> 00:51:56.239
if he signed a pre-trial agreement?
00:51:56.400 --> 00:52:00.280
Well, it wasn't a decision which was
made personally by the prosecutor.
00:52:00.440 --> 00:52:02.800
I think somebody from above
told him to do so.
00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:06.119
The investigator said he was promised
a suspended sentence.
00:52:06.280 --> 00:52:09.599
That's what the investigator said.
00:52:09.760 --> 00:52:13.880
- Otherwise it doesn't make any sense.
- That's right.
00:52:14.039 --> 00:52:17.639
To spend one year under house arrest,
00:52:17.800 --> 00:52:20.840
give evidence against all your
friends...
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.119
That would be fair.
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:32.679
I don't think he is going to last long
in prison, I'm afraid.
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:36.000
Definitely, who likes a grass?
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:39.519
- And that will be... His destiny...
- Definitely.
00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:42.559
It's terrible, absolutely terrible.
00:52:42.719 --> 00:52:45.920
Anyone who does a sentence
longer than 6 months is finished,
00:52:46.079 --> 00:52:48.119
he stops being a human being.
00:52:48.960 --> 00:52:50.039
You really think so?
00:52:50.199 --> 00:52:53.960
Yes, after 6 months
you stop being normal
00:52:55.039 --> 00:52:59.719
because of the kind of life
you lead there.
00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:13.079
Rebrovsky spent several days in prison,
00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:18.159
and at the next hearing, he needed
to repeat the required evidence.
00:53:20.519 --> 00:53:23.239
However, something unexpected happened.
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:35.320
You see, the thing is, conditions of the
pre-trial agreement are as follows.
00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:41.000
I got a conditional sentence, went home,
00:53:41.159 --> 00:53:46.880
but for some reason, the prosecutor
requested 4 years of actual prison
00:53:47.039 --> 00:53:50.480
and I was put in prison.
00:53:53.400 --> 00:53:56.960
Pavel, what method was used
to record your testimony?
00:53:57.119 --> 00:53:59.159
Was it written down as you were speaking
00:53:59.320 --> 00:54:01.920
or were you given
a ready-made statement to sign?
00:54:02.079 --> 00:54:04.039
It was a ready-made statement.
00:54:05.519 --> 00:54:09.119
Are you saying that no radical action
was suggested by anyone?
00:54:09.280 --> 00:54:11.199
Things like arson or explosions?
00:54:11.360 --> 00:54:17.360
All these testimonies were given under duress. I was
threatened with charges of terrorism.
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:19.280
I have no more questions.
00:54:26.400 --> 00:54:29.599
As a result of Rebrovsky's confession,
00:54:29.760 --> 00:54:32.679
it became impossible to charge
the group with terrorism.
00:54:32.840 --> 00:54:37.960
It was now possible for
the whole case to fall apart.
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:47.719
But it didn't.
00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:55.559
- We can put two chairs there...
- They won't fit there.
00:54:56.679 --> 00:54:58.000
Anyuta, Nastya,
00:54:58.159 --> 00:55:02.519
are you going to sit down or carry on
lying there using your phones?
00:55:02.679 --> 00:55:06.360
- You can sit here.
- Damn, my arm is hurting.
00:55:09.119 --> 00:55:12.880
One, two, three, let's go!
00:55:18.440 --> 00:55:23.239
Anya had to attend court
two times per week.
00:55:26.039 --> 00:55:29.400
Hearings went on for months.
00:55:37.199 --> 00:55:39.960
Vasily called me one morning
00:55:40.119 --> 00:55:44.239
and told me that he had found
something important about Ruslan D.
00:55:46.400 --> 00:55:49.320
Yesterday, I received a phone call
from the defence attorney, who said,
00:55:49.480 --> 00:55:52.480
"You need to come over, I've got some
super important information!"
00:55:52.559 --> 00:55:54.559
He found this CV.
00:55:54.880 --> 00:56:00.920
Computer programmer. Lives in Moscow.
Age. Work experience.
00:56:01.199 --> 00:56:05.039
Here's a phone number, and if you Google it,
00:56:05.199 --> 00:56:10.320
you find an IT conference,
which was held in 2006
00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:13.079
and took place in Moldova.
00:56:13.239 --> 00:56:16.840
Here's a photo gallery with this person.
00:56:17.000 --> 00:56:19.199
- That's him.
- Yes, it is.
00:56:19.360 --> 00:56:22.920
Two of the defendants of the
"New Greatness" case
00:56:23.079 --> 00:56:25.199
have already identified him.
00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:29.239
Here he is, in the corner.
00:56:30.360 --> 00:56:33.639
We have his passport number, 4516.
00:56:33.800 --> 00:56:36.639
These are the passport details
held in the case file.
00:56:36.800 --> 00:56:42.719
This is a confirmation that passport
number 4516555432 also exists.
00:56:42.880 --> 00:56:46.000
It isn't listed as invalid.
00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:50.760
However, Ruslan Danilov
00:56:50.920 --> 00:56:53.199
does not have an INN
(Taxpayer Identification Number).
00:56:53.360 --> 00:56:54.440
Yes, this is strange.
00:56:54.599 --> 00:56:56.239
He is not on the database.
00:56:56.400 --> 00:57:01.440
In the case file we have his passport
number, date of birth, his full name.
00:57:01.599 --> 00:57:04.079
Danilov Ruslan Sergeevich.
But here we can't see it.
00:57:04.239 --> 00:57:08.159
This means that the person acting
as witness for this case,
00:57:08.320 --> 00:57:12.760
the person, who the defence claim
to be an undercover agent,
00:57:12.920 --> 00:57:21.000
was the actual person
who paid rent for the premises,
00:57:21.400 --> 00:57:24.679
and to do this,
he used forged documents.
00:57:24.840 --> 00:57:29.960
This kind of thing can only be
done by the security services.
00:57:51.320 --> 00:57:57.719
I looked through our chats
and wrote down things
00:57:58.039 --> 00:58:03.360
which each of us suggested
we might need.
00:58:03.960 --> 00:58:07.719
Things we need to buy.
00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:11.440
I made the list, I'll read it out.
00:58:11.599 --> 00:58:16.679
Paper for leaflets,
stickers, cartridges.
00:58:16.840 --> 00:58:21.239
This is real in the next two months.
00:58:21.400 --> 00:58:26.199
Protective equipment for participating
in street riots: helmets, hard hats.
00:58:26.360 --> 00:58:31.000
No, this is too expensive.
00:58:31.159 --> 00:58:35.719
Offensive weapons for street rallies:
knives, bats.
00:58:40.679 --> 00:58:44.239
We might need them at some point
in future.
00:58:44.400 --> 00:58:47.840
Shit...
00:58:48.000 --> 00:58:51.280
If serious meetings are held.
00:58:51.440 --> 00:58:57.199
Next item, money to carry out attacks.
00:58:57.360 --> 00:58:59.599
For the moment we don't...
00:58:59.760 --> 00:59:02.239
Next: weapons,
ammunition.
00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:05.239
- Do we need this or not?
- Oh, shit...
00:59:05.400 --> 00:59:06.559
- Only if legallly formalized.
00:59:06.719 --> 00:59:10.360
- We could only consider legal.
- Ok then, let's get back to this later.
00:59:10.519 --> 00:59:15.480
Last item, chemicals that can be used
for making explosives.
00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:17.400
- Fucking hell.
00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:27.119
- I know how to make it,
but...
00:59:27.280 --> 00:59:32.159
- You can get lots of chemicals from a DIY
store and just mix them together...
00:59:32.320 --> 00:59:33.360
- No, guys, how...
00:59:33.519 --> 00:59:35.800
-... and set fire to the police station.
00:59:35.960 --> 00:59:38.039
- What are we discussing, guys?
00:59:38.199 --> 00:59:40.840
- Do we need this or not?
This is just the question.
00:59:44.960 --> 00:59:48.159
- Shit, I don't want to do it.
01:00:11.320 --> 01:00:13.480
Dear colleagues,
01:00:13.639 --> 01:00:19.519
today is the first council meeting
we have held since our reshuffle.
01:00:19.679 --> 01:00:23.159
At least a third of the council members
are new.
01:00:23.320 --> 01:00:28.400
I welcome you all, colleagues
we've been working with for many years,
01:00:28.559 --> 01:00:32.760
and all those for whom here at the
council, I truly hope
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:35.079
lots of new opportunities are opening
01:00:35.239 --> 01:00:37.440
to encourage development
of civic society
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:39.719
and defence of citizens' rights.
01:00:39.880 --> 01:00:42.639
Nikolai Svanidze,
you have the floor.
01:00:46.079 --> 01:00:48.760
Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich,
dear colleagues.
01:00:48.920 --> 01:00:51.920
Mikhail Aleksandrovich told us
about the "Network" case.
01:00:52.079 --> 01:00:54.559
"New Greatness" case has another very
serious problem
01:00:54.719 --> 01:00:56.360
that needs to be addressed.
01:00:56.519 --> 01:01:00.159
The whole case is based on provocation.
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:04.880
An agent, an employee, an undercover
mole, I don't know exactly who he was,
01:01:05.039 --> 01:01:08.119
an adult, who brought people together,
organised them,
01:01:08.280 --> 01:01:09.480
came up with the name
01:01:10.119 --> 01:01:12.480
and said, "When are you going
to stop faffing about?
01:01:12.639 --> 01:01:16.000
Let's create an organisation,
01:01:16.159 --> 01:01:19.880
make it work against the authorities."
01:01:20.039 --> 01:01:22.639
And young people suffered as a result.
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:24.119
This needs to be looked into.
01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:27.960
You are saying they were engaged
in some kind of trap?
01:01:28.119 --> 01:01:31.119
- Absolutely right.
- It's the first time I hear about it.
01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:34.639
- I'll look into this, OK?
- Thank you.
01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:37.519
Natalia Leonidovna,
please go ahead.
01:01:49.960 --> 01:01:54.960
Please allow other citizens to pass!
Treat each other with respect!
01:01:55.679 --> 01:01:58.599
- Why did authorities refuse
to authorise this event?
01:01:58.760 --> 01:02:02.920
- What are the parents thinking?
Allowing children to commit such things.
01:02:03.079 --> 01:02:06.239
- Why were you refused permission
to hold this rally?
01:02:06.400 --> 01:02:07.679
- What trolls?
01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:11.199
- What you should be thinking about is the
way parents bring up their children.
01:02:11.360 --> 01:02:15.760
21 people in Kerch have been shot dead,
for your information.
01:02:15.920 --> 01:02:18.079
- Are you sure they were shot?
01:02:18.239 --> 01:02:20.239
- You don't think they have?
Are you having doubts?
01:02:20.400 --> 01:02:21.719
- I don't want to speak to you.
01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:26.039
- Why are these children
were throwing Molotov cocktails?
01:02:26.199 --> 01:02:27.840
- If you don't know...
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:31.599
- If you care so much about your child,
01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:37.480
why did you let your child
commit unlawful acts?
01:02:37.639 --> 01:02:40.719
- My child did not commit any unlawful acts.
01:02:40.880 --> 01:02:43.000
- Then why did your child stay there...
01:02:43.159 --> 01:02:46.840
You should be in jail instead of your
child because you allowed it to happen.
01:02:47.000 --> 01:02:49.000
- Can you shout any louder?
01:02:49.159 --> 01:02:53.119
- You are a mum, you care for your child,
I can understand that.
01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:57.280
But how could you allow for that to happen?
How were you bringing up your child?
01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:01.239
How could you allow your child
to commit a crime?
01:03:01.400 --> 01:03:05.679
- Don't get into an argument with them,
that's exactly what they want.
01:03:05.840 --> 01:03:06.840
- I understand.
01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:08.519
- How is your daughter feeling?
01:03:08.679 --> 01:03:09.960
- I don't believe her!
01:03:39.599 --> 01:03:42.440
Mum, every week the censorship officer
01:03:42.599 --> 01:03:45.719
came up to me with eyes like this
and said,
01:03:45.880 --> 01:03:48.639
"Your letter didn't pass the
censorship check!"
01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:53.880
- What's this?
- We were talking about the Putin's lake.
01:03:54.039 --> 01:03:55.960
"It didn't pass the censorship!
01:03:56.119 --> 01:03:59.119
Don't write anything! You don't want to
get a mark!"
01:03:59.280 --> 01:04:00.559
Ah! Kostya!
01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:05.320
Sveta, who was my cell mate,
01:04:05.480 --> 01:04:09.519
she was very good at predicting things.
01:04:09.679 --> 01:04:14.360
She said,
"You are getting lots of letters.
01:04:14.519 --> 01:04:19.760
One of them must be
from your future fiance."
01:04:20.880 --> 01:04:22.960
She kept going on about fiance.
01:04:23.119 --> 01:04:27.079
- Can you read Kostya's letter?
- All of it?
01:04:27.239 --> 01:04:30.199
It is amazing how everything
turned out..
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:36.199
"Dear Anya, thank you for your letter,
I was very glad to receive it.
01:04:36.360 --> 01:04:39.920
It's good you have a chance
to read such good books.
01:04:40.079 --> 01:04:45.320
I also started reading "The Kukotsky
Enigma" by Lyudmila Ulitskaya.
01:04:45.480 --> 01:04:48.719
At least you are not restricted
in the books you can read.
01:04:49.760 --> 01:04:54.440
Have you received the three books by
Bradbury, Chesterton and Strugatsky?
01:04:55.119 --> 01:04:59.559
I was trying to choose
more optimistic authors.
01:05:00.719 --> 01:05:03.559
What genre of literature do you like the
most? From which period?
01:05:04.159 --> 01:05:08.480
Do you like the Golden Age of Russian
literature, Chekhov, Dostoevsky?
01:05:08.639 --> 01:05:13.000
Or were you put off Russian classics
by the school programme?
01:05:13.639 --> 01:05:17.800
As for the news, it's certainly very sad
that you can't access any.
01:05:17.960 --> 01:05:21.639
As for the tea, it's certainly from me.
01:05:21.800 --> 01:05:24.719
The other day I bought
some really nice Darjeeling tea,
01:05:24.880 --> 01:05:26.960
grown high in the Indian mountains.
01:05:27.119 --> 01:05:30.000
It's absolutely superb!
I promise I will send you some.
01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:31.639
Thanks again for your letter.
01:05:31.800 --> 01:05:35.320
Good luck with everything, stay
positive, keep your chin up! Kostya."
01:05:35.480 --> 01:05:40.239
I remembered he wrote to me about tea.
01:05:40.920 --> 01:05:46.440
I remembered the tea.
01:05:48.519 --> 01:05:52.880
I remembered it,
so when you asked me what to buy...
01:06:14.360 --> 01:06:16.719
- I would like to capture this moment.
- Why?
01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:19.159
A girl who doesn't sleep.
01:06:19.320 --> 01:06:22.920
- Kostya?
- Why?
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:27.360
- What do you want me to say?
- What you have just told me.
01:06:27.519 --> 01:06:31.639
I said that I won't sleep
until we get married.
01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:34.119
- So, you are not going to sleep, right?
- No, I won't.
01:06:34.280 --> 01:06:37.480
Therefore, your mum is doomed
to have insomnia.
01:06:37.639 --> 01:06:40.800
When at night mum turns her face
towards Anya,
01:06:40.960 --> 01:06:45.960
Anya is looking back at her with the
eyes wide open, saying,
01:06:46.119 --> 01:06:49.440
"Mum, have you booked
the registry office?"
01:06:49.599 --> 01:06:52.119
That was really funny.
01:06:53.320 --> 01:06:58.199
Oh, I don't know.
Girls will be girls.
01:06:58.360 --> 01:07:04.320
- Well, mum...
- What?
01:07:06.000 --> 01:07:10.239
Putin is a thief!
Putin is a thief!
01:07:15.880 --> 01:07:21.800
Russia without Putin!
Russia without Putin!
01:07:21.960 --> 01:07:27.440
Dear citizens!
This event has not been authorised!
01:07:27.719 --> 01:07:32.719
"MOSCOW ISN'T A FARM
AND WE ARE NOT THE CATTLE"
01:07:33.559 --> 01:07:39.559
Let us through!
Let us through!
01:07:53.079 --> 01:07:56.239
- What the hell are you doing, guys?
- Are you fucking mad?
01:08:02.320 --> 01:08:07.800
Disgrace! Disgrace! Disgrace!
01:08:15.480 --> 01:08:17.800
I don't know.
I got detained, so it turns out.
01:08:17.960 --> 01:08:20.560
- What's your name?
- Kotov Konstantin.
01:08:27.800 --> 01:08:31.159
...the judge sided with the prosecution,
as you have seen yourself.
01:08:32.680 --> 01:08:36.720
All the evidence of the defence
were simply ignored.
01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:41.239
... no evidence were added
to the case file...
01:08:43.359 --> 01:08:46.319
...question four witnesses...
01:08:50.319 --> 01:08:54.439
in addition to that in his...
01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:02.840
...Kotov Konstantin Alexandrovich has
been found guilty of committing a crime
01:09:03.000 --> 01:09:07.279
in accordance with Article 212.1 of the
Criminal Code of the Russian Federation
01:09:07.439 --> 01:09:10.359
and sentenced to four years of
imprisonment...
01:09:10.520 --> 01:09:16.479
Disgrace! Disgrace! Disgrace!
01:09:20.479 --> 01:09:26.159
Disgrace! Disgrace! Disgrace!
01:09:31.920 --> 01:09:37.640
Disgrace! Disgrace! Disgrace!
01:09:41.479 --> 01:09:44.640
Freedom to Kotov! Freedom to Kotov!
01:09:44.800 --> 01:09:47.840
Freedom to Kotov! Freedom to Kotov!
01:09:55.800 --> 01:10:01.720
Freedom to Kotov! Freedom to Kotov!
01:10:07.199 --> 01:10:12.319
Freedom to Kotov! Freedom to Kotov!
01:10:18.960 --> 01:10:22.800
I wanted to give him a chocolate.
01:10:25.760 --> 01:10:30.119
He didn't even get a chocolate!
01:10:33.600 --> 01:10:37.239
I forgot to give it to him last time.
01:10:38.600 --> 01:10:42.840
I wanted to give him a chocolate.
01:10:46.000 --> 01:10:51.920
Kostya Kotov proposed to Anya
several days before his arrest.
01:10:52.079 --> 01:10:54.800
It will be ok...
01:11:04.359 --> 01:11:07.960
Today
01:11:08.119 --> 01:11:13.920
is the first day of my full-scale
hunger strike that I am doing
01:11:14.079 --> 01:11:18.880
because I can't see
any other way out of this.
01:11:19.039 --> 01:11:23.119
It's all really exhausting and tiring,
01:11:23.279 --> 01:11:26.600
all these unfair sentences.
01:11:27.039 --> 01:11:30.640
The most important thing is that
we are still waiting for our sentence,
01:11:30.800 --> 01:11:33.399
and we will have to
live through that somehow.
01:11:35.000 --> 01:11:39.439
How do we do that? I'm not sure.
01:11:41.319 --> 01:11:44.600
I can't deny that I'm very scared.
01:11:46.159 --> 01:11:52.000
Yesterday, we had a lot more
support from people
01:11:52.159 --> 01:11:54.560
rather than any of the negative stuff.
01:11:54.720 --> 01:12:00.359
Of course, a lot of people say,
"Come on, Julia, get a grip,
01:12:00.520 --> 01:12:02.840
Anya needs your support,
01:12:03.000 --> 01:12:07.760
how will you be able to give her energy
if there's nothing left of you?"
01:12:07.920 --> 01:12:11.840
Oh well, we shall see.
I think everything's going to be OK.
01:12:12.239 --> 01:12:17.960
I still think I am doing the right
thing, in spite of everything.
01:12:18.119 --> 01:12:21.319
Let's wait and see.
01:12:24.960 --> 01:12:29.000
In any case, something needs to be done.
01:12:29.159 --> 01:12:33.279
Otherwise, we'll never be happy.
01:12:33.439 --> 01:12:36.239
That's what I think, anyway.
01:12:49.279 --> 01:12:54.279
"FREEDOM TO OUR CHILDREN"
01:13:10.319 --> 01:13:12.600
This territory is adjacent
to the residence
01:13:12.760 --> 01:13:15.600
of the president of the Russian
Federation
01:13:15.760 --> 01:13:18.079
It's classed as adjacent.
01:13:18.239 --> 01:13:19.880
You are going to be taken
01:13:20.039 --> 01:13:23.279
to the police station for
further investigation.
01:13:23.439 --> 01:13:26.600
Fold your slogan down
and follow us to the car, please.
01:14:05.920 --> 01:14:08.960
Julia was released the same evening,
01:14:09.119 --> 01:14:12.560
but she was given
a second official warning.
01:14:12.720 --> 01:14:18.520
A third warning could lead to criminal
proceedings against her and an arrest.
01:14:23.079 --> 01:14:29.000
Today is day six of my hunger strike.
01:14:34.159 --> 01:14:40.079
I feel very weak, but I'm more worried
about my eyesight
01:14:40.720 --> 01:14:46.680
when in the evening
I need to use my phone
01:14:47.239 --> 01:14:52.279
or read a book.
01:15:15.600 --> 01:15:19.800
Today is day 10 of my hunger strike.
01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:24.239
To be completely honest,
I find it very difficult.
01:15:24.399 --> 01:15:28.439
This morning, I just about managed
to get myself out of bed.
01:15:28.600 --> 01:15:31.920
My arms and legs feel as if they
are stuffed with cotton wool.
01:15:32.079 --> 01:15:37.760
I cannot feel them. I find it difficult
to lift them, they hang down like ropes.
01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:49.840
We continue the interrogation.
01:15:50.000 --> 01:15:52.800
The prosecution has no more questions.
01:15:52.960 --> 01:15:55.760
Defence has the floor.
01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:58.359
- Can you hear properly?
- Yes.
01:16:01.279 --> 01:16:05.319
- Can you hear us?
- Yes.
01:16:05.479 --> 01:16:11.039
Why did you join
the "New Greatness" group?
01:16:11.199 --> 01:16:14.079
I joined this organisation
because I have a hobby,
01:16:14.239 --> 01:16:15.800
attending various meetings.
01:16:17.239 --> 01:16:21.800
I find it interesting to learn the way
various political organisations act.
01:16:21.960 --> 01:16:25.000
You explained to the court
that on the 4th of March 2018
01:16:25.159 --> 01:16:28.600
you contacted the police
to report a crime, is that correct?
01:16:29.199 --> 01:16:30.560
Yes, it is.
01:16:30.720 --> 01:16:34.119
Can you tell us under what name
did you contact the police?
01:16:35.800 --> 01:16:38.520
I dismiss the question.
The question is dismissed.
01:16:38.680 --> 01:16:41.560
I'm not going to answer questions
regarding my identity.
01:16:41.720 --> 01:16:44.119
The question is dismissed.
01:16:45.479 --> 01:16:48.399
Did you take photographs
and video and audio recordings
01:16:48.520 --> 01:16:50.680
of the organisation's meetings?
01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:52.920
- Yes, I did.
- For what purpose?
01:16:53.840 --> 01:16:59.800
It was for my private collection.
I have many hours of similar footage.
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:04.840
Do you maintain a database
of such people?
01:17:07.479 --> 01:17:10.159
I wouldn't call it a database.
01:17:10.319 --> 01:17:15.359
They are separate documents,
video and audio recordings.
01:17:15.520 --> 01:17:19.279
- You paid rent in advance, didn't you?
- Yes, I did.
01:17:19.439 --> 01:17:23.760
Can you tell us, please, do you work?
Are you paid a salary?
01:17:23.920 --> 01:17:28.800
What sources of income did you use
to pay the rent?
01:17:28.960 --> 01:17:31.359
The question is dismissed.
01:17:33.479 --> 01:17:38.119
You noticed that somehow
01:17:38.279 --> 01:17:42.159
ideas and plans of the organisation
differ from those held by you.
01:17:42.319 --> 01:17:46.079
Did you not try steering it
towards a legal route?
01:17:46.239 --> 01:17:50.199
No, it was interesting
for me to observe.
01:17:50.880 --> 01:17:53.560
There's another additional factor.
01:17:53.720 --> 01:17:58.560
Some of the revolutionaries
might be good people
01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:01.359
but they also need to be intelligent.
01:18:01.520 --> 01:18:04.880
Those who are not intelligent
do not pass natural selection.
01:18:05.039 --> 01:18:08.640
In my opinion,
"New Greatness" revolutionaries
01:18:08.800 --> 01:18:11.000
must not pass natural selection.
01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:18.159
After two weeks of unsuccessful attempts
to get through to the authorities
01:19:18.319 --> 01:19:24.279
and serious deterioration of her health
Julia decided to stop her hunger strike.
01:19:49.000 --> 01:19:53.600
You've done a great job with the hair,
it looks lovely.
01:20:09.800 --> 01:20:13.239
It's not easy to get this on.
01:20:17.680 --> 01:20:22.159
Anya and Kostya got permission
to marry inside the prison.
01:20:58.079 --> 01:21:01.359
When you put me against the wall,
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:04.960
me and everyone else
who's had enough of the war,
01:21:05.119 --> 01:21:07.520
I will be calm,
01:21:07.680 --> 01:21:11.600
I will be almost ready to say,
01:21:11.760 --> 01:21:16.159
There's nothing else
apart from love.
01:21:18.239 --> 01:21:23.920
There's nothing here
apart from love.
01:21:25.479 --> 01:21:30.199
There's nothing else
apart from love.
01:21:31.760 --> 01:21:37.000
There's nothing else here
apart from love.
01:21:38.560 --> 01:21:41.880
When you get tired of tears and bullets,
01:21:42.239 --> 01:21:45.760
of shooting enemies and executing
friends...
01:21:55.479 --> 01:22:00.119
"MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE"
01:22:20.000 --> 01:22:25.399
On the same day, after her wedding,
Anya had another court hearing.
01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:36.479
Don't rush, we need to sort this out.
01:22:39.720 --> 01:22:42.399
That's it, I look quite presentable now.
01:22:43.760 --> 01:22:46.560
You look great.
01:23:05.840 --> 01:23:11.800
... according to the code of Criminal Procedure
of the Russian Federation...
01:23:11.960 --> 01:23:14.439
At present the application
cannot be satisfied
01:23:14.600 --> 01:23:17.039
and therefore has to be declined.
01:23:17.399 --> 01:23:23.399
The procedure for appealing a decision
is already known to everyone.
01:23:23.560 --> 01:23:25.199
Please, sit down.
01:23:27.680 --> 01:23:32.319
Freedom to us! Freedom to political prisoners!
Freedom to Russia!
01:23:32.479 --> 01:23:34.079
We are not criminals!
01:23:34.920 --> 01:23:37.640
They are cutting themselves!
Open the fucking door!
01:23:44.920 --> 01:23:54.920
The razor blade…
he cut himself with the razor blade…
01:23:57.000 --> 01:23:58.640
It is insane!
01:23:58.840 --> 01:24:03.079
It is an abuse of power!
01:24:09.279 --> 01:24:14.640
- You are murderers! Murderers!
- Leave the room!
01:24:38.279 --> 01:24:41.119
Dear friends!
01:24:41.279 --> 01:24:46.840
We have gathered here today
by the Solovetsky Stone
01:24:47.000 --> 01:24:51.000
for a memorial event,
"Returning the names".
01:24:51.159 --> 01:24:56.640
From 10 am to 10 pm,
for the 13th year running,
01:24:56.800 --> 01:25:02.000
we read out names of Moscow citizens,
who were executed by shooting.
01:25:03.279 --> 01:25:06.880
Sidor Akimovich Zotov,
67 years old, pensioner.
01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:09.359
Unemployed at the moment of his arrest.
01:25:09.520 --> 01:25:14.119
Executed by shooting
on the 9th of September 1937.
01:25:14.960 --> 01:25:18.199
My father… executed…
01:25:19.720 --> 01:25:25.640
As we were making this film, hundreds of
new political cases have been opened.
01:25:26.039 --> 01:25:29.000
All independent media have been banned.
01:25:29.159 --> 01:25:32.960
This event, held to commemorate
victims of Stalin's repressions,
01:25:33.119 --> 01:25:34.399
became the last.
01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:38.760
Actions of its participants
have been declared illegal.
01:25:40.319 --> 01:25:44.720
Today, same as during Stalin's
repressions,
01:25:44.880 --> 01:25:50.800
mass crimes are again declared as
courage, lies declared as truth.
01:25:51.680 --> 01:25:54.840
Having extinguished the opposition
inside the country,
01:25:55.000 --> 01:26:00.560
Putin's regime started a terrible war
against the people of Ukraine.
01:26:01.880 --> 01:26:07.520
With each new day of this war,
lives of hundreds of people are lost,
01:26:07.680 --> 01:26:09.960
and my country is losing its future.
01:26:12.159 --> 01:26:15.000
It seems that the ghost
from my childhood
01:26:15.159 --> 01:26:19.000
finally dragged me away
to its terrible kingdom
01:26:19.159 --> 01:26:22.640
and all of us have become its hostages.
01:26:22.800 --> 01:26:26.520
Ivan Mozhaev, 51 years old,
priest at the Old-Ritualist Church.
01:26:26.680 --> 01:26:32.640
Executed by shooting on 26th of February
1938 together with my great grandfather.
01:26:34.000 --> 01:26:37.479

on 2nd of January 1938,
01:26:37.640 --> 01:26:41.479

Bezzubov Sergei Andreevich.
01:26:41.640 --> 01:26:44.039
August 1941.
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:49.199
Ivan Grigorievich Galich,
42 years old,
01:26:49.359 --> 01:26:54.560
chief of sales at
Mechanical plant,
01:26:54.720 --> 01:26:59.960
executed by shooting
on 17th of February 1938.
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:05.279
Members of my family, my daughter and
her husband, are political prisoners.
01:27:05.439 --> 01:27:09.439
Freedom to Anya Pavlikova!
Freedom to Konstantin Kotov!
01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:13.359
Freedom to all political prisoners!
01:27:13.880 --> 01:27:19.399
Alexander Davidovich Cherny,
30 years old, chief of...
01:27:22.640 --> 01:27:26.239

01:27:27.159 --> 01:27:29.720
