Irma Fuchs: If Lies Be The Truth of Men

After surrendering to the Red Army in 1945, Irma sets out on a trail of self-preservation, falsehoods her only defence. While waiting for Russian justice a Colonel takes an interest in the young woman, first despatching her on a hellish journey to a Siberian Gulag, before conversely saving her from the gallows and taking her under his wing. Love? Lust? Intrigue? Reason falls below Anatoly Kuznetsov’s motives, and the couple form a loose partnership, he with his goals, Irma with hers. Appointed by Stalin to battle the growing gang culture (The Bratva), Anatoly enrolls Irma, changing her name to Nikita Ivanov, to hide her from the war crimes investigators, where the woman in the company of her comrade Johanna Wolf, offer a creative ability to the guerrilla warfare they find themselves engaged in. While Anatoly pursues Irma’s history, the woman haunted by an old man, cuts a future while fending off the truth of her past. Only Johanna knows that truth, and the girl proves just as evasive as Irma.
