When Freedom Becomes a Distant Memory
What happens when an entire society loses the ability to understand itself? Russia's post-Soviet journey reveals a chilling answer. Through the lives of four Russians born in the 1980s, we witness a nation that briefly tasted freedom only to watch it slip away-not through dramatic revolution, but through the quiet dismantling of the very tools needed to comprehend what was happening. This isn't just Russia's story. It's a warning about how democracies die when citizens can't name what they're losing. As authoritarian currents surge globally, understanding Russia's regression from hopeful democracy to Putin's iron grip becomes essential. The tragedy lies not just in what Russia lost, but in how systematically it was made unable to recognize the loss.
