The protagonist Andrii Dovzhenko finds out a horrible truth, that has been hidden in USSR for years – most of those accused of «anti-Soviet propaganda» were never sent to prison, but to special psychiatric hospitals with a diagnosis of "slow progressive schizophrenia". Andrii finds himself in a real hell of punitive psychiatry and faces a difficult choice – to cooperate with the KGB and return to his family, or to reveal the truth about dissidents tortured in such psychiatric hospitals.
