Limonov: The Ballad

Eduard Limonov's (Ben Whishaw) life story is a journey through the second half of the 20th century. Rebel, iconoclast, outlaw, and counterculture provocateur: the controversial Russian writer and political dissident was all of these things and more. A rock adventure that takes us from Moscow, 1970s New York punk underground to his literary fame in Paris, and ultimately, back to Russia where he becomes the leader of his own extremist political party.
