Kaarin Raid

L’Inspecteur Glebsky est appelé en plein hiver dans un hôtel des Alpes, où des phénomènes étranges ne tardent pas à se manifester. L’hôtel se retrouve coupé du reste du monde par une avalanche et un huis-clos angoissant s’instaure, ponctué par des événements surnaturels…

Viktor Kingissepp has been the underground head of the Communist Party of Estonia for three years. He corresponds with Moscow, writes speeches for the members of the Communist Workers' Party and makes leaflets for the events of trade union. His purpose is to overthrow the Republic of Estonia since he does not believe in Estonian independence nor in any national ideals. Yet the clock keeps ticking, tuberculosis spreads rapidly, the world revolution is being postponed. What to do in order to make one's efforts work?

It is the night of March 25, 1949. A full moon hangs over Estonia. Endless rows of cattle cars are waiting to transport thousands of Estonian families, asleep in their homes, to Siberia. The Stalinist regime is ready to treat people like animals.
