"The Great Russian Lie" is a series of films about a country living in an atmosphere of informational sanitation, in which the narratives of Russian propaganda are debunked.
For centuries, Russia has used history, literature, cinema, art, sports, and media as instruments of propaganda to advance political interests. It calls itself the heir of Kievan Rus and justifies claims to the lands of neighboring states.
