In case someone comes back a wonderin' ... Pussy Riot is an all girls Russian punk band performance art protest thingy. They were arrested and imprisoned and this documentary is about that story.
The BBC and the HBO versions turned out to be the same same. If there are any differences it is in captioning. Just watch one;
Directed by Mike Lerner, Maxim Pozdorovkin. With Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Mariya Alyokhina, Yekaterina Samutsevich, Andrey Tolokonnikov. Follows the court case of three members of the Russian feminist punk protest group Pussy Riot after their performance in a Russian Orthodox cathedral.
Fascinating story of a small group of young women who created a way to express their dissent. As a bonus, very insightful look into the current public and government attitudes in Russian.
Great film. Watch it.
(I do see now there exists a doc; Free Pussy Riot. But I don't see that yet on TPB or elsewhere.)
