Synopsis
Anton has a dreamer's vision of Moscow, embellished by memories of childhood crush Zina, who moved there with her family. Reality is very different: rebuffed by Zina and roughed up by the police, he decides to join the force and beat them at their own game. Crooked, sadistic cop Chakhlov takes Anton under his wing, initiating him in the art of the shakedown and playing with his moral compass.
