Diagnosis: Dissent
Watch TrailerAndrii Dovzhenko stumbles upon a state secret that chills him to the core: in the USSR, those accused of 'anti-Soviet propaganda' are not sent to prisons, but to special psychiatric hospitals, branded with the diagnosis of 'sluggish schizophrenia'. Thrust into the hellscape of punitive psychiatry, he faces an impossible dilemma — cooperate with the KGB to see his family again, or risk everything to expose the truth about dissidents tortured within these medical gulags. His personal struggle mirrors the larger battle of free thought against a system weaponizing medicine to crush the human spirit.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film transcends historical drama to become a visceral study of existential dread, where a person's very sanity is deemed a crime. It masterfully avoids simple morality, illustrating how systems corrupt healing into a tool of subjugation.
What lingers after the credits is a profound unease about the fragility of truth and the institutions we trust. A stark reminder of how easily science can be perverted by power — MovieFinder Editorial
