The protagonists of the film are Mikhail Gorbachev, Boris Yeltsin, Vladimir Putin, and the Russian nation, as always being a silent witness of its own destiny. Made by one of Russia’s most renowned documentary-makers, Vitaly Mansky, Putin’s Witnesses tells the story of how Putin rose to power and is holding his position for nearly two decades, by providing first-hand footage he shot near Putin and Yeltsin, on that fateful night.

Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition.
