Secret Police Officer Leo Demidov lives a desirable life in Stalin's postwar Soviet Union. He's young and successful with a good career, new apartment and beautiful wife. After a series of events which tarnish his reputation as the perfect Soviet citizen, Leo loses almost everything. When he discovers evidence of a serial killer, he's determined to prove these crimes to a state which claims they don't exist - even at the cost everything he has left, including his life.
