Synopsis

From Russia with love. In their comic book travelogue Moscow, Ida Neverdahl and Oystein Runde give themselves free rein. Russia's largest comic book festival, KomMissia, held in Moscow this year, was visited by a contingent of Norwegians. The visit (and particularly the experience of taking part in a modern, Russian 1st of May demonstration), inspired Neverdahl and Runde to make a comic book about the trip.
