Résumé
Summer, 1978. Brezhnev sits in the Kremlin, Israel and Egypt are inching toward peace, and in the streets of Rome, strange new creatures have appeared: thousands of Soviet Jews who have escaped to freedom through a crack in the Iron… Curtain. Among them are the Krasnansky family: Samuil, an old communist and Red Army veteran; Karl, his eldest son, a man eager to embrace the opportunities emigration affords; his younger son, Alec, a carefree playboy for whom life has always been a game; and Polina, Alec's new wife, who has risked the most by breaking with her old family to join this new one. Some descriptions of sex and violence, some strong language. 2011.
