A biting, frenetic dark comedy that uses satire and absurdist humor to expose the chaos and paranoia of Soviet power politics in the wake of Stalin's death.

When dictator Joseph Stalin dies, his parasitic cronies square off in a frantic power struggle to become the next Soviet leader. As they bumble, brawl and back-stab their way to the top, the question remains — just who is running the government?
