This is a story without innocents. A maniacal informant creates his own phantom secret-police department. He recruits a group of intellectuals to spy on each other and uses his secret archive to wreak havoc on the government. Secret policing reveals its dark nature not only in its nauseating cruelties, but in its deviant pleasures. –TIFF
Only if the English translation was not that butchered, more people would be able to laugh as hard as Bulgarians do when they see this. Excellent writing and excellent execution. As Billy Wilder said : "If you're going to tell people the truth, be funny or they'll kill you." This movie is very funny!
