The film explores how Russia's unexamined Stalinist past continues to shape the present, leading to its war against Ukraine. It reveals the atmosphere of a society where human life was worthless, and power over people was seen as an unquestionable right. Those who arrested, guarded, and executed never doubted their righteousness. Today, the legacy of the Gulag remains a lingering shadow, shaping public consciousness and the political reality of our time.

The film features Alexey Serebryakov, Yuri Felshtinsky, Elena Ressina, Jack Neuhausen, Marat Modelevsky, Ida Shchupak, Nestor Mykhailichko, and others. Art Director - Olesia Buganova.
