A morning in St. Petersburg, surrounded by the heavy stench of the streets and minds crammed into tiny rooms by poverty. Directed by Georges Lampin, this drama brings Dostoevsky’s classic to a modern street. Raskolnikov, a former student, finds himself caught between his conscience and his reason as he struggles with unpaid rent and the burden of debt weighing on his shoulders. With the shadow of police detectives looming over him in the wake of the dark crime he has committed, the suffocating silence born of guilt envelops every corner.
