Limonov: The Ballad of Eddie
Drama133 min
Ben Whishaw is Eduard Limonov, the Russian writer and political agitator whose life veers through the second half of the 20th century in sharp, contradictory turns. Poet, novelist, dissident, militant, and at one point butler to a Manhattan millionaire, he moves from the Soviet underground to America and across Europe while writing his own legend as he goes. The story tracks Limonov through exile, literary notoriety, street-level violence, and public provocation, with Viktoria Miroshnichenko among the figures in his orbit.
