City of Thieves

While the Nazis were holding Leningrad under siege, Lev Beniov and a handsome deserter named Kolya were arrested for looting and thrown into the same cell.

In a city cut off from all supplies and suffering unbelievable deprivation, Lev and Kolya embark on a daring hunt through the dire lawlessness of Leningrad and behind enemy lines to find the impossible.
