Trezor

Сейф

The historical thriller Trezor _ inspired by real events _ takes place in the underground vault of the Ministry of the Interior in November 1956, days after the end of the War of Independence. The basic situation is unbelievable, but true: in November 1956, the reorganized internal affairs officers, who drowned the freedom struggle in blood, are faced with the awkward situation of being unable to break into their own vault, where confidential, personal materials are kept. The special vault keys were lost in the chaos of the revolution, and the vault door is so bomb-proof that it cannot even be hit by a hand grenade. Finally, the police bring a former bank robber out of prison, who once managed to break into this vault. However, the prisoner finds something completely different behind the revealed vault door than he expected, and from there an exciting, twisty game begins, where no one and nothing is what it seems.
