At the onset of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Gleb, a powerful CEO, is preoccupied with feeding the war machine with workers, when he learns of his wife’s infidelity.

Faced with this discovery and a complex professional decision, his scruples quickly fade. Zvyagintsev’s masterful and darkly humorous tale of impunity will make your blood run cold.
