Title Ozarenija molnii. Pravdivaja istorija shamana Aleksandra Gabysheva, kotoryj hotel, no ne smog izgnat' demona iz Kremlja
Description "Lightning Revelations" is a work of non-fiction about the 2019 march on Moscow by the Yakut shaman Alexander Gabyshev. Anthropologist and documentary filmmaker Mikhail Bashkirov reconstructs this story in rich detail, from the first steps of the “warrior shaman” to his arrests, the criminal case against him, and the system of compulsory psychiatric treatment that came to define his fate. As the book moves forward, a private story turns into a wider account of the state’s repressive machinery, from the security services to psychiatric institutions. At the same time, Bashkirov paints a portrait of present-day Yakutia and reflects on the place of Russia’s national regions in contemporary Russia.
