DESCRIPTION:Introduced by Polina Kovaleva\, Project Director\, Eurasia\, of
  PEN America. Followed by a discussion with author Masha Gessen and filmma
 ker Max Tuula in person \n\n  Co-presented by PEN America&nbsp\; \n\n	\n	
 \n		Dir. Askold Kurov. 2017\, 75 mins. After the Russian annexation of Cri
 mea\, Oleg Sentsov\, a Ukrainian filmmaker\, activist\, and native of the 
 region\, became an active opponent of the occupation. In May 2014\, he was
  arrested by the Russian security service\, charged with planning terroris
 t attacks. A year later he was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Director A
 skold Kurov follows the progress of the trial and efforts to have him rele
 ased. The notorious case inspired worldwide protests from the European Fil
 m Academy and filmmakers such as Pedro Almodovar\, Wim Wenders\, Agnieszka
  Holland\, Ken Loach\, and Russian colleagues Alexandr Sokurov and Andrey 
 Zvyagintsev. Kurov's eye-opening documentary investigation deepens and dar
 kens into a Kafkaesque story about a man trapped inside a state machine. A
 t the time of this screening\, Oleg Sentsov is in the second month of a hu
 nger strike. He is demanding the release of 64 Ukrainian nationals jailed 
 after Russia's seizure of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014. \n		\n		\n		\n

 ucer\, whose credits include The Term (also screening in the series Putin'
