Cheka

Srupov is a member of the Soviet Russian secret police "Cheka" established by Lenin. They arrested intellectuals, nobles, Jews, clergy and their families arbitrarily, interrogated them for only one minute, tried them for ten seconds, and then shot them. In the Cheka's basement, prisoners were shot in groups of five, naked and facing the wooden door. No one recorded their last words, no witnesses, just nameless bodies. Day after day, illegal trials, executions and corpse loading ran like an assembly line. Srubov is a ruthless sexual pervert but a profound thinker who hates his past friends and family. He breaks down as he attempts to discover the purpose of the revolution and the meaning of the Cheka's existence.
