A furious comedy about three incurable idealists, who want to go down in history as a prosecutor, a politician and a doctor. One desperately wants to introduce the death penalty in order to bring the law of Moses back into the world, another wants to resurrect communism, free from its Russian heritage. The third believes in love as the last great asset of humanity. And then there is also a fourth, who more than anything else is looking for professional gain. They all have one thing in common - they love the same woman. And so, at the end, it is a woman who rules on their manly machinations and drives the game of the unreformable one step forward.
