Lufthansa said it would conduct "an internal review" to find out how the Oscar statuette belonging to Russian director Pavel Talankin went missing in Frankfurt.
Pavel Talankin’s Oscar goes missing after JFK security forces him to check it in as cargo. Despite prior hassle-free travel, the award vanishes en route to Frankfurt, sparking outrage.
Pasha Talankin, co-director and winner of “Mr. Nobody Against Putin,” says he was blocked by TSA agents at New York’s JFK Airport from bringing his Academy Award onto a flight.
