ZEROGRAD

Communism becomes a Kafkaesque nightmare of hilarious proportions in ZEROGRAD, a Russian political satire combining the madcap energy of Terry Gilliam with the whodunit excellence of Agatha Christie. Lowly engineer Varakin ventures to a strange remote village and quickly finds himself involved in a bizarrely surreal mystery, one regarding the suspicious death of a local chef who may or may not be his father. A singular and idiosyncratic vision of the absurdities of life under the Soviet banner, ZEROGRAD brings imaginative visuals and sharp commentary together into one unmissable experience.
