Even though the 70s were a foggy, swamp-like years in the good-old USSR, the fog hid many scandals and blood-chilling crimes. This series features unique archive materials never seen before on screens, and it creates something so authentic that viewers feel like they went back in time. This is a rare glimpse in the lives of Soviet people during the total stagnation in USSR 70s history. There’s nothing stagnating about the series though. The plot moves swiftly and decisively, murders happen almost simultaneously and then the elaborate cover-up begins to unfold. First, two gruesome murders shake town. Then, a man behind the murders begins the deadly game of chess with the investigating detective. Someone with high connections, and thus, elusive, he uses all known tricks of the trade to avoid being captured. He seems to dominate the opponent, nearly crashing him. He has an upper hand through his KGB connections and friends in high places. But the justice will prevail. Through intricate setup and incredibly brave moves the investigating detective risks everything to reveal the real identity of the killer. And, we assure you, you’d never guess who it was. Made with incredible attention to every detail and spiced with great performance, this series will capture and engage any audience that digs historical thrillers.
