The documentary Shadows of Sofia, by Kevin Booth and friends, seek to discover the connection between Russian influence in Bulgaria and how it might parallel what's going in the States.  Featured band leader of Pussy Riot, a Bulgarian pop music group, was sentenced to Siberia for hard labor for two years for practicing what we in America would know as FREE SPEECH.  

Booth reveals the tension in Bulgaria is in part due to the shadowy underworld created when the Russians left the country, leaving behind a mafia that has since become the governent.
