Soviet Union, 1937.
The time of Stalin's terror. Alexander Kornev, a young, ambitious public prosecutor, is investigating a provincial prison where a prisoner appears to have been wrongly imprisoned. Kornev wants to clear up the abuses. But bit by bit, the system strikes back. A film full of breathtaking suspense and Kafkaesque comedy.
