From Russia With Lev is a 2024 documentary film about Lev Parnas.[3][4][5] It is the first documentary produced by cable news anchor Rachel Maddow.[2]

Production

According to Rachel Maddow, Parnas had a "come-to-Jesus moment" and wanted to repent for his actions; because he had recorded so much of what he had done -- "terabytes of data from his phone and iCloud accounts" -- he was able to share a lot of evidence with MSNBC. [6]
