Crime thriller set in Stalin-era Soviet Russia. In a state where crime isn't supposed to exist, pro-Stalin security officer Leo Demidov (Tom Hardy) begins to investigate a series of child murders. For his ignorance and betrayal of state policy, Leo finds himself demoted and exiled from the country he believed he was perfecting. Nevertheless, the persistent war hero pursues the case with only his wife Raisa (Noomi Rapace) for help. With his loyalty and beliefs shattered, Leo must try to find a killer who supposedly doesn't exist before his victim count rises further. But having been denounced, Leo may be in danger from a force far bigger than the free-roaming killer.

Danish director Niels Arden Oplev helms this revenge thriller starring Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace. When merciless crime boss Alphonse (Terrence Howard) discovers a number of his acolytes murdered he turns to his most trusted henchmen, Victor (Farrell) and Darcy (Dominic Cooper), for answers. Little does he know that Victor is the culprit; the killings part of an elaborate scheme to avenge wrongs unknowingly inflicted on him in the past by Alphonse. However, Victor's plans are thrown into disarray when he is drawn into a relationship with his seductive neighbour Beatrice (Rapace), a woman who has her own designs on vengeance. As their chaotic schemes rush towards a violent conclusion, will the pair save each other or destroy each other?
