El Ciudadano X

You're a forensic specialist in the Soviet Union, stymied by party dogma at every turn. But a series of grisly murders suggests something new, something distinctly patterned. The bureaucracy resists, and the killer proliferates. Gerolmo's film landed as the Iron Curtain rusted open, a grim artifact from a closed society. The film stays with you.
