The Godfather of St. Petersburg will launch worldwide with ZDF Studios handling the international distribution.
The documentary, produced by Story House Productions for ZDF, examines St. Petersburg in the 1990s; chaos, crime and corruption; and the relationships Putin forged as a deputy mayor.
The two-part true-crime documentary highlights the roots of modern Russia with commentary from international experts, never-before-published documents, eyewitness accounts and former associates speaking out for the first time.
