Sergei Maxudov, a dispirited Russian newspaper man, has written a novel that may never pass the censors. In despair, contemplating suicide, he is interrupted by a publisher who wants to buy the novel and then accepts an offer to adapt it for the stage. The play takes a dark turn when he meets the theatre’s formidable artistic director, who insists on personally overseeing the production, inflicting his legendary acting method upon the rehearsals. Increasingly frustrated by the artistic hypocrisy of the theatre, which is also subject to government oppression, Maxudov is reduced to another cog in the labyrinth of theatre bureaucracy. He is then left with a life-changing decision. Rated PG-13
