It is 1921 in a small town near Lviv. A young war veteran walks into a police station and calmly says, ‘I have just shot someone.’ The victim is Osyp Krushelnytskyi, a well-known lawyer and womaniser.

Behind the confession lie wartime trauma, the prominent Krushelnytskyi family and a woman caught between two cities and two lives. The story unfolds against the vivid everyday world of the early twentieth century.

Background music: Scott Buckley — “I Walk With Ghosts”.
