In 1962, the Soviet government raised food prices due to a shortfall in production — something that was unthinkable with the constant exceeding of agricultural quotas and the perfection of the Soviet system. But in the industrial town of Novocherkassk, workers go on strike — and the response to the insurrection is a brutal massacre. In the chaos, one stalwart part member's daughter goes missing, and her faith in communism is shaken when she tries to find her.
