David, a university professor, takes to social media to criticize his city’s administration. But instead of the mayor’s dodgy dealings being investigated, David is himself accused of embezzlement and placed under house arrest.
Aleksey German Jr.’s wry satire of contemporary Russia sees an academic confined to his apartment after daring to draw a bureaucrat in a salacious arrangement with an ostrich. With its spatial limits outsized by timely themes, House Arrest is a David-and-Goliath tale of censorship and injustice.
