Synopsis

In a land where church spires rise as high as the Kremlin’s ambitions, the line between God and government has not just blurred, it has been deliberately smudged. Recent analyses reveal a growing fusion between the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) and the Russian state, one so seamless it could pass for divine choreography. If this holy alliance had an official motto, it might well be: “Sermons for State Strength.”
