Synopsis

The Russian Internet is full of video bloggers. Some talk about ordinary life and make a lot of money, while others comment on politics, like Kamikadzedead, who is as popular on YouTube as Russia Today.

The latter is subject to a real witch hunt. Dozens are in prison, and hundreds have been fined for a post or a "like".
