In May of 2013 Edward Snowden leaks thousands of documents to reporters demonstrating the breadth of surveillance by the NSA on the American people. In June, he lands in Moscow seeking asylum from a government infamous for its poor record on human rights. What ensues is a series of American-Russian political reactions, an absurd novel authored by Snowden's own pro-bono lawyer, and Putin’s patronizing praise for the NSA-whistleblower -- "he's a warrior for human rights."
