Plot synopsis
Yakov Dzhugashvili. Son of the great Stalin. This is the fate and tragedy of Jacob. War, bombing, captivity, concentration camp - his life was not like a happy fairy tale, but he must tell the truth about it - to people and his father.
Leni Riefenstahl. Beautiful, smart and charming queen of cinema, Hitler's favorite director. Her goal is not only to make a film about the son of the great leader, but also to carry out a secret mission for the Third Reich.
The terrible truth, which burned Yakov Stalin from the inside and was revealed only by Leni Riefenstahl, will turn their lives upside down and weave their destinies into a single knot of love, betrayal and death.
