Budapest, 1936. Crime reporter Zsigmond Gordon, a cynic who thinks he has seen it all, gets a tip leading him to an unusual crime scene in a seedy part of the city. Investigating the murder, Gordon enters a world of pornographers, brothels and Communist cells leading to the highest echelons of power – not knowing who to trust, or what ulterior motives are working against him and the truth.
