Ich, Putin - ein Portrait

He is amongst the world’s most controversial politicians – Wladimir Putin. But who is Putin? What are his motives, his goals? This personal portrait by Grimme Award winner Hubert Seipel paints a diverse picture based on exclusive interviews and close observation of the man and the politician, who is also an embodiment of German-Russian history since his KGB time in the GDR.
