Ukrainian filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa is famous internationally for both his fiction (Donbass) and nonfiction (Babi Yar: Context) work. He sets his latest chilling portrait of autocracy during the height of Stalin’s 1937 purge of former comrades. In a town far from Moscow, a young lawyer fresh out of school takes the case of an unjustly imprisoned old Bolshevik.
