Those who challenge Vladimir Putin’s regime may pay a high price —even with their own lives. The documentary follows people working tirelessly to expose this tyrannical regime: a whistleblower from inside Russia’s poisoning program, who embarks on an almost impossible escape after uncovering the true intentions behind Putin’s poisoning schemes; a political activist who miraculously survives two poisonings; and an investigative journalist who exposes Putin’s assassination operations, forced into exile while his family faces escalating threats.
