Set on the eve of world WWII, Hitler is rising to power and Stalin's Soviet propaganda machine is pushing their "utopia" to the West. Meanwhile an ambitious young journalist, Gareth Jones travels to Moscow to uncover the truth behind the propaganda, but then gets a tip that could expose an international conspiracy, one that could cost him and his informant their lives. Jones goes on a life-or-death journey to uncover the truth that inspired George Orwell's seminal book Animal Farm.
