In a nutshell: The series examines how, over the past two decades, the Kremlin has wielded lethal poison as a tool of power, solidifying its position on the global stage. Each unchecked act of aggression has emboldened its expansionist ambitions, culminating in the war unleashed in February 2022. The subsequent sanctions are the inevitable result of Vladimir Putin's long-standing strategy—a dangerous game imposed on allies and adversaries alike.

Synopsis:
The haunting image of Alexander Litvinenko’s irradiated face serves as a grim reminder: defying the Kremlin comes at a deadly cost. Masters in the art of poison, Russia has weaponized it as a key element in its strategic arsenal. Over the past two decades, several high-profile poisoning cases have revealed the Kremlin’s shadowy methods and its fraught relationship with the West. Each case uncovers a high-stakes game of influence and power struggles, where attacks on sovereignty, energy resources, and geopolitical standing echo the tensions of the Cold War—and set the stage for the ongoing conflict with Ukraine.

This investigation delves into four pivotal cases, each highlighting methods, motives, and power dynamics, yet forming a chillingly coherent narrative:

2006: Alexander Litvinenko (murdered)
2015–2017: Vladimir Kara-Murza (survived, later imprisoned in 2022)
2018: Sergei Skripal (survived, later disappeared)
2020: Alexei Navalny (survived, later imprisoned in 2022)

Through exclusive interviews with key figures—including the British judge who implicated Vladimir Putin in Litvinenko’s murder, former Kremlin insiders, top Russia experts, and international diplomats—this three-part film unravels the intricate web of poisonings, power, and geopolitics shaping the modern world.
