Hate Thy Neighbour: Season 1 Episode 3

Football, Fascists And The Frontline

Ukraine is the only country in Europe fighting a bitter war on its own soil. Comedian Jamali Maddix travels there to meet with Azov, a far-right militant group that has risen in legitimacy despite its infamous neo-Nazi background. Jamali spends time with members in the midst of their deadly conflict with pro Russian separatists, during the week when Azov launch a recognised political party. He?s taken on training missions, street marches, military activities, and delves into Azov?s grass roots recruiting strategy - from the world of football hooliganism. Through all this Jamali attempts to gain insight into Ukraine?s swastika-adorned national heroes and work on his own knife-throwing skills.
