The story of Vladimir Vetrov, the KGB agent who provoked the downfall of the Soviet empire.
Illustrated with testimonies of key witnesses, archives and reconstitutions, this film follows each step in the course of action taken by this maverick agent. It unveils the little known story of a self-made spy and reveals the frustrations and calculations, pettiness and courage, cowardice and violence that can drive a man to betraying his country.
