While pro-Russian separatists fight for independence in eastern Ukraine, this documentary looks at another disputed territory that declares allegiance to Moscow: Transnistria (or the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic). What is it like to live in a state that hardly anyone recognises? Secret police, central planning and the ever-present face of Russian-backed strongman Igor Smirnov form the backdrop to these excerpts from directors Lukas Kokes and Klara Tasovska's film about a country that doesn't exist.
