Stream the frontrunner for this year's Best Documentary Oscar - DanielRoher's NavalnyDoc - right now on HBO Max
Published Feb 14th, 2023 9:34PM ESTThe category that I’m probably going to have my eye on the most during the Oscars 2023 ceremony on March 12 isn’t one of the biggies like Best Picture or Best Actor.

, which follows two brothers who devote their lives to protecting the black kite — a bird of prey essential to the ecosystem of New Delhi.is the frontrunner for the Oscar in this category. And certainly, if it does take home the golden statue, it will be well-deserved. As for what audiences can expect to see in the film: Shadowed by Roher, viewers are introduced to Navalny as a devoted husband and father, and a charismatic political figure with piercing blue eyes and a massive following online.

Soon enough, though, this film about one man becomes something much more. For one thing, people are not supposed to survive Novichok poisoning. As soon as he’s recovered, never mind how improbably, Navalny also does something that no doubt seals his fate — even as it turns the documentary into something along the lines of a John le Carre thriller.
