Citizen X

You don't want to know what he does... You just want to know when he's caught.

A grim, methodical procedural about institutional failure and moral corruption, told through a detective's struggle against bureaucratic indifference while hunting a prolific child killer.

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.
