Fifteen years ago Andrey graduated from a Secret Service school under the guidance of his father, that trained teenagers to be agents for the Foreign Intelligence Service. When this experimental school is closed, he settles in Europe and cuts ties with Russia. One day his father who was believed to be dead calls him to warn him that some security forces want Andrey dead so he must run and hide. While on the run Andrey finds Masha, his ex-classmate from the Secret Service school. He faces love and betrayal and learns the real scale of the ruthless spy game that he was dragged into against his will.

VIBE

A brooding, atmospheric spy thriller that plunges you into a world of shadows and deception. Expect a slow burn of paranoia and betrayal, where trust is a luxury and survival is the only objective. It feels like a cold, hard rain falling on a desolate city street.
