Plot

Czechoslovakia 1992; the communist regime has recently fallen and the Soviet occupation army is hastily withdrawing back to Eastern Europe. Wagons leaving the country are crammed with weapons, spare parts, ammunition and other valuables. Two young students, testing a new railway tracking system, discover that some Soviet wagons are inexplicably disappearing from the registers on their way . Both men decide to get to the bottom of the problem. A few days later, one of them is found dead and the other is believed to be on the run. Lieutenant Roman Rédl and a team of investigators are trying to find out what was the reason for the murder and how far the threads of the crime extend knowing it may cross the borders of Czechoslovakia and lead somewhere far to the east.
