Watch bizarre trailer for AI Putin biopic the Kremlin DOESN’T want you to see – from toilet paper to Playboy bunnies

WATCH the utterly bizarre AI trailer for a Putin biopic that the Russian dictator doesn’t want you to see. Polish director Patryk Vega has teased a freaky full-length feature film about Putin using AI-hybrid filming to impose his face over another actor’s body.
Polish actor Slawomir Sobala apparently spent two years studying “Putin’s body language, his gait, and his way of entering a room,” in order to nail the part. And the film has caught the attention of Kremlin spies who don’t want it going out to the world - and you can see why.
One scene shows the all-powerful leader quivering in the foetal position - in his pants. In another, he brandishes two strings of toilet roll to the adoring squeals of a room full of Russian aristocracy. Exactly how much of the film’s plot is true is unclear, but Vega said: “The audience needed to see the real Putin on screen.”.
The trailer opens with a classic bullied-child-grows-icily-determined sequence, with Putin’s mother introducing him to a group of kids before he receives a firm headbutt to the face. “It’s better to die standing than live on your knees,” his assailant tells him.
The film then flashes through various stages of Putin’s life: his judo endeavours, work as a cabbie, and romantic meeting with his fiance (he grabs hold of the woman and declares: “She’s my new wife.”). Other freaky scenes are left notably unexplained, such as the line of 20 women dressed as playboy bunnies made to run from thugs with guns through a snowy forest.
