Set against the backdrop of Stalin's oppressive regime, the narrative follows Paltiel Kossover, a Jewish writer who, unlike his contemporaries, leaves a written testament before his execution. His journey from a Jewish boyhood in pre-revolutionary Russia to embracing Communism, only to confront its betrayal, highlights the personal and political turmoil of the era. Two decades later, his son Grisha discovers this testament, which not only reveals his father's struggles but also sheds light on his own life, bridging the past and present.
