Mama, I’m Home, produced by Alexander Rodnyansky, portrays mother’s search for mercenary son

A new
Russian film tackles one of the country’s great taboos: the role of Russian mercenaries in trouble spots around the world and the toll this takes on the family members of the often unacknowledged soldiers who die in combat.
“Mama, I’m Home”, produced by Alexander Rodnyansky, who is well known for the critically acclaimed, Oscar-nominated Leviathan and Loveless, depicts the story of a mother searching for her son after being told he was killed while fighting for a private
MILITARY company in
Syria.
