Description

Follows the experiences and conflicting ideologies of the Jewish Slepak family, focusing on the story of Solomon, who survived the purges of the 1930s in the Soviet Union, maintaining his loyalty to the Communist party, and of his son, Volodya, who spent five years in Siberia as punishment for his dissent.
