Little October

In Soviet-occupied Lithuania, two young pioneers – one a true believer, the other a skeptic – are promoted to serve on the legendary ‘Red Wall’. But as they journey through a decaying industrial nightmare, they uncover a horrifying truth: the Wall is built from living flesh. Faced with eternal torment, they make a desperate bid for freedom.
