The story follows Abrikosov’s and his apprentice’s critical night, when they have to solve a fatal problem with Lenin's body in the Stalinist Moscow 1936.
Recently “Mausoleum” won Honourable Mention of the Jury in Mumbai International Short Film festival.

“… a fly hasn’t been quite so scary since Jeff Goldblum…
… a tragicomedy managing to both be truly tense, scary, and at the same time completely ludicrous, what’s possibly most chilling of all is how close to the truth this film is.”
