synopsis
In this thriller, "Greek" (Valery Garkalin) has a pretty pleasant life, running excursion boats with his partner and doing a little professional gambling on the side. Things take a sinister turn when his partner is killed after a big (and inexplicable) loss in a card game. Greek suspects the worst, and vows to track down the cheat and his partner's killer (he expects they are the same person). The outward pleasantness of Russians at play swifly becomes sinister, as more and more people come under Greek's suspicious eye.
