Russia, 1936: revolutionary hero Colonel Kotov is spending an idyllic summer in his dacha with his young wife and six-year-old daughter Nadia and other assorted family and friends. Things change dramatically with the unheralded arrival of Cousin Dmitri from Moscow, who charms the women and little Nadia with his games and pianistic bravura. But Kotov isn't fooled: this is the time of Stalin's repression, with telephone calls in the middle of the night spelling doom - and he knows that Dmitri isn't paying a social call...
This sun-drenched family pastoral slowly curdles into a chilling nightmare as the creeping shadow of Stalinist paranoia infiltrates a private summer estate. What begins as a lush celebration of leisure shifts into a claustrophobic struggle for survival against an invisible, approaching terror.
