About
You can stream Citizen X (1995) on Max with a subscription.
Based on the true story of a Russian serial killer who, over many years, claimed victim to over 50 people. His victims were mostly under the age of 17. In what was then a communists state, the police investigations were hampered by bureaucracy, incompetence and those in power. The story is told from the viewpoint of the detective in charge of the case.
A relentless investigator battles both a predator and the suffocating layers of Soviet bureaucracy to catch a killer. This procedural turns the hunt into a psychological struggle against a state that prefers silence over justice.
