Mausoleum

The story follows one night of the pathologist Aleksey Abrikosov’s and his apprentice’s life, who in theory manage to overcome death by embalming the body of Vladimir Iljitsh Lenin. Since the embalmment their entire lives have been devoted to caretaking of the Lenin's corpse. The accomplishment makes Abrikosov "A hero of Socialist labor", and as a result he gets chance to live in a Kudrinskaya luxurious Stalinist skyscraper amongst other Soviet elite… until the night they might be dragged down from the top floor into the basement for an execution due to luxurious lifestyle.

One night, just prior to the holy celebration of First of May Abrikosov receives a phone call from his apprentice Sasha informing that there is a problem with Lenin's body - apparently there is a fly sitting on Lenin's nose inside the sarcophagus.

Welcome to Moscow of 1936 and into the world of Stalinist terror where human is less worth than a fly.
