Präsident Putin belohnt «Heldenmütter», die der Nation viele Kinder gebären. Die tiefe Geburtenrate erfüllt den Kreml mit Sorge, besonders seit dem Krieg gegen die Ukraine. Überhaupt propagiert die russische Führung «traditionelle Werte» - die sexuellen Minderheiten bezahlen den Preis. Alexei in Sankt Petersburg ist Punkmusiker. Früher besang er Männer, doch seit die LGBT-Bewegung vom Kreml als «extremistisch» eingestuft wurde, hat er seine Songs umgetextet. Nun singt er von Freundinnen und es geht angeblich um heterosexuelle Liebe. «Natürlich ist es ein totaler Scheiss. Meine Lieder fühlen sich jetzt an wie gelogen». Die schwule Band tarnt sich und ihre Auftritte. Aus Angst vor Repression. Was bleibt, sind unterschwellige Andeutungen. «Wer sie versteht, versteht sie». Der Kreml inszeniert sich als Verteidiger von «traditionellen Werten» in einer «Schicksalsschlacht» gegen den angeblich moralisch korrupten Westen. Seit Beginn der sogenannten «Spezialoperation», dem Krieg gegen die Ukraine, sucht er verstärkt auch nach Mitteln, um die Geburtenrate zu steigern. Frauen, die der Nation zehn Kinder schenken, bekommen eine Prämie. Der Zugang zu Abtreibungen dagegen wird erschwert. Der Kreml weiss dabei die orthodoxe Kirche auf seiner Seite. Doch lässt sich auch die Bevölkerung für Putins «traditionelle Werte» mobilisieren? Erstaustrahlung: 15. Februar 2025

Months after anti-Putin activist Alexei Navalny died in a Russian prison, his wife, Yulia Navalnaya, now the leading figure of his political movement, spoke with correspondent Lesley Stahl in Navalnaya's first U.S. interview about her late husband's posthumous memoir. Navalnaya discussed the book – Navalny's last act of defiance against the Kremlin, which chronicles his final three years behind bars under often brutal conditions – and his death, which she blames on Russian president Vladimir Putin. She details Alexei's clandestine operation for penning the memoir inside a high-security prison and then smuggling it out; why the couple decided to return to Russia after Navalny was poisoned; and her daring campaign for justice in the wake of his death. Each year, about 2 million Americans receive a bill from the Social Security Administration, saying they were paid too much in benefits and must pay it back. Even if the error is not their fault, they often still have to pay. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports on how some elderly and disabled people have been burdened with tens of thousands of dollars in debt. Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to the U.K. for an intimate portrait of actor Kate Winslet, Hollywood's most non-Hollywood A-lister, and discusses her transformative journey to starring in and producing her film, “Lee.” Winslet, who has been a vocal advocate against the insults and inequalities facing women in the film industry, relies on this experience for the role, portraying American photographer Lee Miller, who worked for Vogue as one of the few female war correspondents on the frontline of WWII. As Vega discovers, Winslet and Miller share a resilience and see the world through a similar lens, making her connection more than just a role.
