Synopsis
Life in Albania, in the 80’s, has turned into a real hell. Enver Hoxha’s paranoia reaches its peak as he gets rid of his closest “friends” one after the other. One of them is Mentor, Head of the Secret Service. Sensing the danger Mentor locks himself night after night in a secret room of his house and starts recording the events he was involved in from the beginning of the communist regime. He manages to give his son Martin the audio tapes, before getting arrested. The family gets deported to a small town, where they have to work in the mines like all the other families of the “fallen”. When the Secret Service gets a hint that Mentor recorded the tapes, Martin manages to escape and to get to Italy. After his encounter with a famous Italian investigative journalist, and the news that the father back home was executed, Martin needs to decide on going public and revealing the contents of the tapes in a TV interview.
