How has the Putin regime exploited its war of aggression in Ukraine to increase its grip on power and control at home? 

This episode is about its fateful shift from an authoritarian to a totalitarian system, taking you behind the closed doors of Vladimir Kara-Murza’s sham trial to uncover the lengths the regime will go to turn a peaceful opposition and anti-war activist into the gravest "enemy of the state." 

The "Trial" features interviews with Vladimir himself in 2020, Evgenia Kara-Murza, his lawyer Vadim Prokhorov, fellow activist and subject of an Oscar-nominated documentary, Anastasia Shevchenko, and President of the Free Russia Foundation, Natalia Arno.
