Hand of Terror

"The Chekist" - the gloomy drama of Aleksandr Rogozhkin. A very bold film of the director, who became famous mainly for comedies, about the most terrible period of red terror in the 20s of the 19th century, which claimed millions of lives who disagreed with the ideas of the Revolution. The color of the nation, the noble intellectuals and patriots of Russia were completely destroyed and turned into mountains of mutilated corpses.
