When Russia emerged from the debris of 70 years of cCommunist party rule, the country offered signs of hope it would become a democracy and a respected player on the international scene. Instead, it turned into a dictatorship, one which has no respect for human rights, murders and imprisons its political opponents, and launched a war on a scale not seen in Europe since the end of World War II. So how did this happen? 'The Successor' explores recent Russian history through the life of the Russian liberal leader Boris Nemtsov, was assassinated in early 2015 beside his Ukrainian partner Anna Durytska, on a bridge near the Kremlin.
