The Death of Stalin

The Death of Stalin (2017)

He’s dead, and the backstabbing has just begun.

When dictator Joseph Stalin dies, his parasitic cronies square off in a frantic power struggle to become the next Soviet leader. As they bumble, brawl and back-stab their way to the top, the question remains — just who is running the government?
