The film Two Prosecutors is another puzzle in the image of Russia.
Cannes. So far, no film has often been overwhelmed in any film and did not lock the door as in Sergei Loznitsu two prosecutors. His story is the story of a young and idealistic lawyer Kornev, whose Soviet Union has been employed to see to observe the rights of convicts in prison and justice of their processes.
The thirties of the last century approached the end, and Stalin’s regime culminated when a prisoner’s complaint came to him, claiming that his crime had been borne, investigated, and enforced by his confession. As is said to happen in thousands of other cases that the Communist Party management may not know.

When Kornev came to see him and listen, the chief of the prison in Briansk asked him in surprise: How did his letter get to you? Part of the work of the Ministry of the Interior was to ensure that no complaint could ever get out.
As it happened that he left the prison and found his addressee, it is not essential in Loznits’ film. What matters is what happens to happen when Kornev urgently asks the prison authorities to let him go to the author of the letter and to talk to him about his experience.

The author of the letter is an old and conquered gentleman. It turns out that he is the second prosecutor of the film. Respectively, he was. He was all his life – until he had a lecture at the Faculty of Law and called for students to never forget the essence of his work. Always make sure that the legal system of the Soviet Union is not just a karsomlove on paper. Require it in practice, telling them.
This was enough for the regime to recognize him as its enemy and make him a victim of Stalinist purges.
How do you deal with what I told you? He finally asks young Kornov.
