It was important for Lorna Lorna Tucker to write Bare because not only was she starting to forge a name for herself as a filmmaker that made the press dredge up her past but also she realised it wasn’t something to hide anymore. #GsyLitFest

Murder in the Gulag recounts how Navalny made a fatal mistake returning to Russia after his poisoning, betting that Vladimir Putin wouldn't kill him. But with the fortunes of war slowly turning in Russia's favour, Navalny lost that bet.
