Not So Far Away Places

A woman with short blonde hair and large glasses sits on a metal stair platform in a dimly lit, institutional hallway with pale green walls. She wears a blue camouflage uniform with a shoulder patch and a radio clipped to her chest. In her lap rests a cat, its front legs draped casually over her arms. Behind her is a heavy metal door and a blue mailbox labeled in Cyrillic.

In-depth immersion into the Russian prison repressive machinery shot from the subjective perspective of a human right activist working undercover, trying to confront the totalitarian system from within.
