Lenin's Pawn
“He came from the Universe. Moldova sends him back.”
LENIN’S PAWN is a hybrid documentary with dark humor following actor Sergiu Voloc, a modern-day Don Quixote whose lonely fight against Lenin monuments across Moldova turns into an absurd confrontation with a system that rebuilds them overnight.
