'Hacks' Is Not a Hack…It's Comedic Perfection
Deborah (Jean Smart) and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) are a delight to watch evolve, sometimes devolve, then evolve again.
Wagner, Putin's Shadow Army
Wagner does not exist. At least not officially. However, after months of investigation and for the first time, Alexandra Jousset and Ksenia Bolchakova plunge us into the heart of this secret army. This film is an investigation into the Russian private military company Wagner. Deployed on all the hot spots of the planet. Its thousands of mercenaries are the armed arm of a Russia that dreams of being great again, applying the recipes learned by Vladimir Putin at the KGB: destabilize and disinform.
