We’re proud to share that the feature film Le Mage du Kremlin is competing in the Official Selection of the 82nd edition of the Mostra Internazionale d’Arte Cinematografica. Production designer François-Renaud Labarthe has meticulously shaped a world where every detail of the set amplifies the film’s political tension and deepens its narrative resonance. Directed by Olivier Assayas and produced by Curiosa Films, Forma Pro Films, Gaumont, and Pierce Capital Entertainment, this political thriller traces the enigmatic ascent of Vladimir Putin, seen through the eyes of a young Russian filmmaker drawn into his inner circle. Against the turbulence of post-Soviet Russia, the film delves into the mechanisms of power, manipulation, and the price of loyalty. The cast brings together Paul Dano, Jude Law, Alicia Vikander, Tom Sturridge, and Jeffrey Wright.
