Soviet Union, 1937. Stalinism is at its peak. A young prosecutor attempts to seek justice for a prisoner trying to expose corruption within the regime’s secret police, only to embark on a Kafkaesque odyssey that increases the threat to his liberty with every step he takes. A darkly humorous but devastating account of life under totalitarianism.
