Solo conocen a Putin (2020)

A few hours before the millennium celebrations on December 31, 1999, President Boris Yeltsin resigned and appointed Vladimir Putin as interim president. The children of Putin's generation only know the former KGB agent in front of power. But like young people their age in the West, they belong to the Internet generation and have access to information that does not appear in Russia's state-controlled media. How do young Russians think and feel today? How do they want to live in an apparently strengthened, but unstable country? From St. Petersburg to Eastern Siberia, the report accompanies several representatives of this generation: from Putin's fanatical admirer to a passionate opposition activist.
