Witty, urgent, and unflinching, Political Girl is a visceral journey into the heart of authoritarianism and an enduring cry for justice. From the cold concrete of prison cells to the surreal act of eating “enemy” cheese, from moments of quiet resistance to the front lines of protest, Maria Alyokhina offers a raw, fearless testament to the power—and price—of defiance. Though rooted in Russia, her story speaks far beyond its borders, to anyone who believes that protest can be art, and that art can confront, disrupt, and even destabilize authoritarian power. Political Girl is a fierce, inspiring portrait of a true star of conscience -- Alpa Shah
