Synopsis

In this nonfiction thriller, director Bryan Fogel immerses himself into the world of performance enhancing drugs by trying them out for himself, only to stumble into the centre of Russia’s extensive state-sponsored doping program. Exemplifying the special bond between filmmaker and subject, this is a vital portrait of the sacrifice some people will make to stand up for truth. (Sheffield)
