A descent into hell in Russia

Mathieu Roussel, an expatriate in Russia, led a quiet life until everything changed in 2017. When he was arrested in front of his daughter, he discovered that he was the victim of “kompromat”: manipulation aimed at to accuse him of serious crimes on the basis of falsified documents. Incarcerated and facing a possible life sentence, he realizes that his hopes of being exonerated are dwindling as the situation gets worse. The film then plunges us into a climate of permanent tension, where every moment can make the difference between freedom and captivity.

Faced with implacable Russian justice, Mathieu has only one option: escape. The plot accelerates when he tries to reach France on his own, avoiding being recaptured at all costs. In this hostile context, alliances prove uncertain and dangers are omnipresent. Kompromat plays with the viewer’s nerves by building relentless suspense, carried by an effective production which reinforces the feeling of urgency.
