Producent:
Moscow, 1934. The city is bustling with activity as the much-anticipated subway construction is finally underway. The inaugural subway line is set to traverse the heart of Moscow, delving deep beneath its streets. However, creating the future often necessitates unearthing the past. While Russian leaders envision a magnificent Soviet capital, they are inevitably tied to their history—a past filled with ancient soils and remnants.Anton Belkin, serving as an Investigator at the Procuracy, holds a precarious position during the tumultuous period leading up to the Show Trials. He finds himself needing to stay out of the spotlight. His father, once a celebrated avant-garde painter, is now out of favor, considered too radical for the rigid world of Stalin's regime.Anton becomes reluctantly involved in a murder investigation when an esteemed archaeologist, who was collaborating on the subway excavation project, is discovered dead in a deserted mansion. Though Anton is hesitant, Vika, his former lover, now with the secret police, coerces him into visiting the crime scene. Despite his reluctance, Anton gets entangled in an investigation that could very well cost him his life.Beneath Moscow's surface, Anton stumbles upon a valuable secret that not only holds the potential to influence the future but also entangles him in a brutal struggle for power within the nascent Soviet regime. As events unravel, he is compelled to reassess his past with Vika and the complex ties that keep them connected."Moscow Underground" presents a compelling narrative of existence, mortality, and political dynamics within the unstable realm of Stalin's tyranny.
