Eli Friedberg Slant Magazine The film is a satiric look at Stalinism and bureaucracy with shades of Kafka, Orwell, and Gogol. Rated: 3/4 Oct 6, 2025 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) The claustrophobia is total – we’re theatrically trapped in cells and offices, click-clacking down corridors – but the superb Romanian cinematographer Oleg Mutu lights everything like Vermeer doing Borat. Rated: 4/5 Jun 16, 2025 Full Review Justin Chang NPR You know it can’t end well, but you never know exactly how it will end -- or at what point this meticulously constructed steel trap of a movie will snap coldly, decisively shut. Jun 2, 2025 Full Review Alejandro Lingenti La Nación (Argentina) ...Loznitsa manages to create a very special, at times almost hypnotic, atmosphere, reflecting the paranoia, the persecutions and the repression that characterized the regime in the Stalin years...[Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Jane Freebury Jane Freebury An inside story, sinister and ironic, of a regime that ate its own Rated: 4/5 Nov 16, 2025 Full Review Alireza Hatamvand FILMINK (Australia) … a film that will linger in the memory of cinephiles for many years.

dlma1 M I saw this film at the AFI Film Festival in Hollywood. From Slovakia, this drama takes place in the USSR of 1937, when a young prosecutor tries to investigate abuse of a loyal party member, who has been unfairly imprisoned. Period recreations of the USSR at the time are very good along with atmosphere of despair that pervaded Russia that the time. A tense drama, but with a predictable conclusion that I saw coming from a mile away. 6/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
