弗拉基米尔·普京入侵乌克兰后，卡拉巴什小学和俄罗斯各地的学校一样，被下令向年轻一代灌输所谓的”爱国主义课程”。该校摄影师帕沙·塔兰金（Pasha Talankin）被指派记录整个过程，以向俄罗斯政府证明学校严格遵守了指令。
尽管他深爱学生，塔兰金却痛恨这场战争，感到自己被困住了。”我爱我的工作，但我不想成为政权的棋子，”他说。
塔兰金还厌恶同事们被迫鹦鹉学舌般重复国家宣传的做法，比如将俄罗斯在乌克兰的”特别行动”称为”去纳粹化”。于是，他决定记录一切——不仅是为了政府，更是为了向世界展示真相。
他的工作成果成为了纪录片《无名者对抗普京》的基础。塔兰金与该片的美国联合导演大卫·博伦斯坦（David Borenstein）在我们位于伦敦的办公室接受了《周日早晨》节目的采访，该片即将在本周末的奥斯卡颁奖典礼上角逐奖项。
“当老师不得不说乌克兰走上了新纳粹和新法西斯的道路，而我们必须’解放’它时，那一刻我意识到自己没有道德权利删除这段素材，”塔兰金说，”因为这是当今俄罗斯学校发生情况的证据。”
博伦斯坦表示：”我想帕沙甚至不知道，我们都不知道，这部电影最终会取得什么成果。”
两人在网上相识，随后决定合作拍摄这部电影。两年来，塔兰金持续拍摄，而博伦斯坦则在欧洲远程指导。他记录了一切：支持战争的学生集会；普京的准军事组织瓦格纳集团（Wagner Group）来校进行武器培训；以及他的一些学生被征召前往乌克兰参战的那一天。
“当帕沙拿起相机时，他觉得自己被困在这个卡夫卡式的系统中，”博伦斯坦说，”他在电影中说：’在这所学校当宣传者就像走钢丝。’”
风险极大。如果被发现，塔兰金可能面临终身监禁，尤其是他还通过一些小动作引起注意，比如在学校广播系统中播放《星条旗永不落》而非俄罗斯国歌。
当被问及是否曾认为俄罗斯当局已经注意到他时，塔兰金回答：”有时我觉得是。在俄罗斯，你永远不知道。没有人会打电话给你，没有人会敲门。他们只是在暗中观察，然后突然破门而入，把你按在地上，而地板是你在公寓里最后看到的东西。就是这样，你就消失了。”
在西方，《无名者对抗普京》大获成功，最近它赢得了英国电影学院奖（BAFTAs，英国奥斯卡）的最佳纪录片奖。但在俄罗斯，克里姆林宫声称他们太忙而无暇观看。
然而，塔兰金的母亲——一位在影片中露面的强硬派图书管理员——设法观看了该片。”嗯，我们不会直接谈论它，”当被问及母亲的反应时，塔兰金说，”但她接受了《纽约时报》的采访，说她喜欢这部电影，并且为儿子感到骄傲。”
最终，这场戏变得太危险了。塔兰金预订了去土耳其的假假期，然后逃离了俄罗斯。如今流亡在外的他，成为了俄罗斯这个有时会报复的国家的公开批评者。当被问及安全感受如何时，他回答：”大概有80%的安全。”
塔兰金为他深爱的孩子们感到痛心，他担心他们的未来已经被普京的民族主义谎言所毒害。谈及这部电影，他表示：”这是一份非常重要的文件，因为它展示了俄罗斯社会未来几年的样子。普京可能不再存在，但社会将会变得邪恶，因为宣传已经进入学校并被教授给孩子们。”
这部电影聚焦于孩子们，但也揭示了摄影师的许多故事。博伦斯坦说：”对我来说，这也是一个关于反抗的故事。无论你身处何地，每个人都面临道德选择，这也是一个关于当你周围的政府摧毁你所建立的一切时，你会怎么做的故事。”
当关键时刻来临时，帕沙·塔兰金做出了他的道德选择——反抗。他不再是”无名者”。

“Mr. Nobody Against Putin”: How one Russian teacher confronted Kremlin propaganda
March 15, 2026 / 9:26 AM EDT / CBS News
Right after Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, Karabash Elementary, like schools across Russia, was ordered to indoctrinate young minds with a so-called “patriotic curriculum.” Pasha Talankin, the school’s videographer, was assigned to shoot it all, to prove to Russia’s government that the school was toeing the line.
But much as he loved his students, Talankin hated the war, and felt trapped. “I love my job, but I don’t want to be a pawn of the regime,” he said.
Talankin also hated the way his colleagues were forced to parrot the state’s propaganda, such as referring to Russia’s “special operation” in Ukraine as “de-Nazification.” So, he decided he would record everything – not just for the government, but to show the world.
His work became the basis of the documentary, “Mr. Nobody Against Putin.” Talankin and the documentary’s American co-director, David Borenstein, spoke to “Sunday Morning” in our London office, ahead of this weekend’s Academy Awards, where their film is nominated for an Oscar.
“When the teacher had to say Ukraine had taken the path of neo-Nazism and neo-fascism, and we must ‘liberate’ it, at that moment I understood that I had no moral right to delete this material,” Talankin said, “because it is part of the evidence of what’s happening in Russian schools today.”
Borenstein said, “I don’t think Pasha even knew, none of us knew, that this film would ever come to anything when we were making it.”
Pasha Talankin recorded the propaganda curriculum being fed to schoolchildren in Russia following the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine, which became the basis of a new Oscar-nominated documentary, “Mr. Nobody Against Putin.” Kino Lorber
The two met online, and agreed to make a film. So for two years, Talankin kept shooting, while Borenstein directed remotely from Europe. He recorded everything: pro-war student assemblies; Putin’s paramilitary Wagner Group showing up to give weapons training; and the day some of his students were drafted to fight in Ukraine.
“When Pasha picked up the camera, it was because he felt he was trapped in this Kafkaesque system,” Borenstein said. “He says it in the film: ‘Being a propagandist at this school is like walking a tightrope.’”
The stakes were huge. Talankin could have faced life in prison if caught, especially as he kept drawing attention to himself with small acts of rebellion, like playing “The Star-Spangled Banner” instead of Russia’s anthem on the school’s P.A. system.

Asked if he ever thought Russian authorities were onto him, Talankin replied, “Sometimes I thought so. In Russia you never know. No one will call you; no one will knock on your door. They just watch, and then suddenly break the door down, throw you on the floor, and the floor is the last thing you see in your apartment. That’s it; you don’t exist anymore.”
In the West, “Mr. Nobody Against Putin” is a triumph. Most recently it won best documentary at the BAFTAs (the British Oscar). But in Russia, the Kremlin claims it’s just been too busy to watch.
Talankin’s mother, however, a crusty librarian who appears in the film, has managed to see it. “Well, we don’t talk about it directly,” Talankin said when asked about her reaction. “But she did give an interview to the New York Times and said she liked the film and that she’s proud.”
Eventually, though, the whole charade became too risky. Talankin booked a fake holiday to Turkey, and escaped. Now in exile, he is a very public critic of a sometimes vengeful Russian state. Asked how safe he feels, he replied, “Probably 80 percent safe.”
Talankin mourns for the kids he cares about so deeply, and whose future, he fears, has been poisoned by Putin’s nationalist lies. Of the film he says, “This is a very important document, because it shows what Russian society will be like in a few years. Putin may no longer exist, but society will be evil, because propaganda entered schools and was taught to children.”
This film focuses on the children, but it reveals a lot about the cameraman, too. Borenstein said, “It’s also, to me, a story about resistance. Everybody faces a moral choice wherever you are, and this is a story also about what you do when there is a government around you tearing down everything that you have built up.”
When the time came, Pasha Talankin made his moral choice, to resist. He is “Mr. Nobody” no more.
