The Riot of the Executioners
1998, Kazakh. Directed by Genādijs Zemels.

The state could not even provide them with an elementary existence and simply destroyed them. Some of them were shot, some were taken to the far islands of the North and to the remote corners of Siberia.

A real riot begins...
