Set in Stalin-era Soviet Union, a disgraced MGB agent is dispatched to investigate a series of child murders -- a case that begins to connect with the very top of party leadership.

Based on:

 

The novel is based on the crimes of Ukrainian serial killer Andrei Chikatilo, also known as the Rostov Ripper, who was convicted of and executed for 52 murders in the Soviet Union. In addition to highlighting the problem of Soviet-era criminality in a state where "there is no crime", the novel also explores the paranoia of the age, the education system, the secret police apparatus, orphanages, homosexuality in the USSR, and mental hospitals

 

Directed by Espinosa, starring: Gary Oldman, Tom Hardy, Joel Kinnaman and Noomi Rapace

I'll be seeing it too, anything with Noomi is a winner in my eyes. Tom and Gary sure do love working together.
