The film delves into the inner workings of Russia's new power elite and is a fascinating and frightening social portrait of Putin's Russia. The area around the 30-km-long Rublyovka causeway, which leads from Moscow to the Russian provinces, has attracted the powerful and the rich like a magnet throughout the ages: Tsars, dictators, presidents and more recently the oligarchs and stars of show business. It is a bizarre microcosm of power and history, intelligence and decadence that exists nowhere else in Russia. The film embarks on a journey through time to explore the phenomenon of this self-contained world. Irene Langemann, who was born in Siberia, has all the prerequisites to make this closed cosmos visible.
