“If your vagina lands in prison, then the world is gonna listen,” sings Pussy Riot in “Straight Outta Vagina,” a song released in 2016. The Russian punk rock group is the subject of “Act & Punishment,” a music doc that has just been acquired by Cleopatra Entertainment. Deadline reports that Cleopatra acquired worldwide rights to the feature-length project outside Russian territories and plans “a November theatrical bow in the U.S., in conjunction with a soundtrack release and a U.S. tour by the band to promote the film.”

“Act & Punishment” features Pussy Riot bandmembers Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Mariya Alyokhina, and Yekaterina Samutsevich, “who were jailed in Russia in 2011 after protesting the country’s human rights oppression — specifically targeting the election of Vladimir Putin as president of Russia and the Russian Orthodox Church’s ties to him,” Deadline writes. Pussy Riot’s feminist activism made international headlines.

The doc, written and directed by Evgeny Mitta, shows what happened after their release from prison and “follows their evolution from political activists to punk-rockers,” and addresses their infamous set at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, “where bandmembers were attacked by Cossacks who were hired as security at the Games.”

“I was scared after I was attacked. For two months, if I was alone on the street and someone was approaching me, I would start to think about how I could run or how I could protect myself,” Tolokonnikova has revealed. “But you cannot allow your fear to make you unproductive, and it was really important to me to keep doing my art. Sometimes you just have to forget about it — or learn to protect yourself. Just go take boxing lessons.”

As for fighting oppression, Tolokonnikova said her “strange punk advice is to mix everything that you know and everything that you care about into one thing.” She explained, “I’m tired of all these conversations about art and politics. Why do you have to separate them?”
