For more on how Duterte ended up at the ICC, this 2019 film from @jamesjones.bsky.social is essential viewing. How it wasn't at least nominated for an Academy Award is beyond me. www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontli...

London-based friends, head to The Frontline Club on 22nd to see ANTIDOTE plus a Q&A with director @jamesjones.bsky.social and Christo Grozev, the investigative journalist & author who became a target of the Russian state after leading the investigation into Navalny's poisoning. bit.ly/3RE5O2m
Saw this gripping film by @jamesjonesfilm late last year & highly recommend it. It is dramatic, harrowing & moving, revealing the high personal price a principled & uncompromising journalist @christogrozev has paid for being - in the eyes of very bad people - too good at his job.
James Jones@jamesjones.bsky.social · last yr.Following the convictions of the spies at the Old Bailey in London we can now release the film.
