The Confession

Read The Confession Storyline:

Eastern Europe, 1956:
Comrade Inspector Ferenc Kolyeszar, who is a proletariat writer in
addition to his job as a state militia homicide detective, is a man on
the brink. Estranged from his wife, whom he believes is cheating on him
with one of his colleagues, and frustrated by writer's block, Ferenc's
attention is focused on his job. But his job is growing increasingly
political, something that makes him profoundly uncomfortable.When
Ferenc is asked to look into the disappearance of a party member's wife
and learns some unsavory facts about their lives, the absurdity of his
position as an employee of the state is suddenly exposed. At the same
time, he and his fellow militia officers are pressed into service
policing a popular demonstration in the capital, one that Ferenc might
rather be participating in. These two situations, coupled with an
investigation into the murder of a painter that leads them to a man
recently released from the camps, brings Ferenc closer to danger than
ever before-from himself, from his superiors, from the capital's shadowy
criminal element.
