★★★★★ – Guardian. A pitch-black absurdist tale from Academy award-winning Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa (Donbass), based on a novella by political activist Gregory Demidov. 1937, at the height of Stalin’s Great Terror. 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 Kafka-esque odyssey that increases the threat to his liberty with every step he takes. Loznitsa’s claustrophobic and austere drama is a chilling portrayal of life under totalitarianism.
