Synopsis

When rich young businessman Andrei is suddenly arrested at his home in Moscow, he is not unduly worried. After all, things have changed since the bad old Soviet days and he s already hired a crack lawyer to prepare for just this event. But implacable forces are ranged against Andrei, and to his horror he is forced to do serious time in one of Russia's most notorious prisons. Surrounded by hardened criminals with a low opinion of the nouveau-riche financial classes, cut off from his expensive lifestyle, betrayed by those he once trusted, Andrei turns inwards and discovers a new life amid the debris of the old. DO TIME GET TIME is a riveting psychological thriller somewhere between Dostoyevsky and John Grisham. The reality of modern Russia, by turns exhilarating and monstrous, breathes from every page.
