.. “It was always my hope to meet my daughter in Poland to watch her work come alive on screen,” Olga Solovey said in a statement with T he Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday.

That is the reason why I refuse to attend the festival for the promotion of Rust , especially now when there is still no justice for my daughter.” Alec ‘s involuntary manslaughter trial was dismissed in July after “critical” bullet evidence was introduced into the case. The Rust armorer is currently serving an 18-month.
