Starring Ben Wishaw and directed by Kirill Serebrennikov, the film “Limonov -The Ballad” premieres in the official section of the Cannes Film Festival of this year. Victor Solé participates in a small part of the film in the role of Carlos, the pimp of one of Limonov's lovers.
The film is a biography of the Russian poet, who was a revolutionary militant, a murderer, a clandestine writer, a butler to a millionaire in Manhattan. But also a switchblade waving poet, a lover of beautiful women, a warmonger, a political agitator and a novelist who wrote of his own greatness. Eduard Limonov’s life story is a journey through Russia, America and Europe during the second half of the 20th century.
