Assel Aushakimova (Welcome to the USA) shows why she is one of the most acute observers of contemporary Kazakh society with this droll satirical short. When a local reporter from state television is sent to capture a PR stunt from the Kazakh police force, the slippery dynamics between the media, law and order, and public opinion come to the surface in hilarious fashion.
