Under Jakob's Ladder (2011)
Based on a true story, 'Under Jakob's Ladder' is a full-length feature film that takes place in the Soviet Union during 1938. Jakob, a former teacher who lost his job due to the new Communist system, can only stand by and watch as the world around him slowly disintegrates and fear and suspicion rule the day. Like most of the men in his village, he soon finds himself in a Soviet prison. But it is there that he discovers that the freedom he craves might actually be found within the walls of his cell.

best movie i've ever seen.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
