The Riot of the Executioners

In 1949, before the celebration of Stalin's 70th anniversary, disabled veterans of the Second World War were shot in the former USSR. The state could not even provide them with an elementary existence and simply destroyed them. Some of them were shot, some were taken to the far islands of the North and to the remote corners of Siberia. The film reproduces a possible story of such a destruction of crippled soldiers in one of Stalin's camps. Combat commander Alexei finds his old military friend, who must also be shot. A real riot begins...
