What Is Gulag About?
The premise of Gulag without spoilers.
Mickey Almon, once a celebrated athlete, now works as a reporter covering Moscow’s sporting events. The KGB frames him as an American spy, forcing a false confession that lands him in a Siberian Gulag—a brutal labor camp in the frozen wilderness. With no proof of innocence, he must endure the inhuman conditions or devise a daring escape.
