Kapitan Volkonogov bezhal

I crave for Russian movies, but beware, I speak of real films, not the CGI war propaganda garbage stuff as you may find from time to time. I remember for instance LEVIATHAN, THE MAJOR, FACTORY and a handful of others. Films which are the accurate reflect of the Russian society, now or at Stalin's period. Such as this one, where it is fully explained that poor innocent people were brutalized, tortured by men who knew those poor people were innocent; the torturers knew, but still did it because they received the order from Stalin to torture his own people so that no one trusts no one in order to avoid any plot against him. This kind of topic may be difficult to understand from the western countries eyes, especially now, in 2023 and the war in Ukraine...This is a terrific movie, gloomy, depressing, unbearable in some sequences, not a comedy for sure. A piece of jewel for anyone interested in this per WW2 Stalin period. I am sure there are batches of those films that have not reached France. The story of a torturer who suddenly wished to redeem himself, his soul, his conscience. Awesome.
