Novaya Gazeta journalist Svetlana Orlyuk was involved in dangerous investigations and unfair court decisions. Sveta managed to save many, but failed to save herself. She died in June 1995 in Vladikavkaz. Without it, Russian journalism has become different. Sveta is one of 365 journalists who have died in Russia since 1993.

Moscow protests in the summer of 2019, caused by the exclusion of independent candidates from the elections to the Moscow City Duma, were brutally dispersed by riot police and the National Guard. The peaceful protest actions on July 27 and August 3, which brought thousands of people outraged by the injustice to the central streets of Moscow, inspired and made many bolder, despite the arrests and the large criminal trial called the “Moscow case”. The persecution has mobilized new forces of solidarity among professional human rights defenders and grassroots activists, especially young ones. Supporting political prisoners has become a fashionable pastime. How long?

In the early 1990s, Vladimir Putin, an official of the St. Petersburg mayor's office, developed a scheme for exchanging strategically important resources for food for the starving city. However, Petersburg did not receive European products. With a detailed study of this story, the film about the coming to power in Russia of a union of former KGB officers begins. But this story is just one of many. The director's interlocutors are former employees of the mayor's office who knew Vladimir Putin well, an investigator who was involved in the case of large-scale corruption in St. Petersburg, experts and journalists who unraveled the complex tangle of relationships between officials and bandits in the 90s.

These are the 24 hours in the residence of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, from the beginning of his day which starts, by the way, at 3 am till dusk when he goes to bed. During that time period, the film crew followed the Dalai Lama in his morning fitness training, his walk along the residential alleys, his prayers and meditations. These are followed by audiences, press-conferences and giving blessings to pilgrims. On the same day the Dalai Lama gave his teachings to the Buddhists from Russia and Mongolia. And at the end of the day, when the Buddhist leader returned to his personal quarters, the filmmakers enjoyed a totally informal discussion where the Buddhist leader touched upon the essence of the Universe and the role an individual has to play in religion and contemporary society. The cameras also caught quite a few absolutely unexpected moments that would surely enrich the Dalai Lama image for those with a keen interest. The second part of the movie is a travelogue compiled by the filmmakers on their trip from India, though China, to Russia. On the way back home, they keep on recalling their last discussion with the Dalai Lama that they just had before they left his residence. Quite surprisingly, the issues discussed with the Dalai-Lama were about overpopulation, a gap between rich and poor, ways to avoid global conflicts - these themes had been powerfully confirmed by the striking images they encountered on the way home.
