Kino Lorber has acquired all North American rights to coming of age story ''
Putin's Kiss.''
''
Putin's Kiss'' portrays contemporary life in Russia through a middle-class, 19-year-old Russian girl and a member of Nashi, a political youth organization that is connected with the Kremlin. She quickly ascends to the top of Nashi, which allows her to become the protege of the Minister of Youth and is rewarded for her loyalty with an apartment while attending Moscow State University -- but then learns that a radical faction within the organization is supposedly responsible for attacks against anyone who criticizes Putin.
