After spending seven years in jail for an art heist, Frenchman Victor Lambert (Gerard Depardieu) returns to Moscow to uncover the circumstances behind his son Jeremy’s brutal murder. He is assisted by his lover Alexandra (Elizabeth Hurley), and by his ex-partner-in-crime, choreographer Souliman (Eli Danker).

In a series of fierce, action-filled scenes that tear through Moscow and Grozny, Viktor brutally hunts down his prey until he finally comes face to face with the man responsible for his son’s death.

Viktor is a film of revenge and redemption set against a backdrop of a gorgeous, modern-day Russian Federation that finds its inspiration in the tradition of action films like Clint Eastwood’s “Gran Torino” and Sam Mendes’ “Road to Perdition.” Told in a powerful, visually stunning cinematic style, Viktor highlights Moscow’s thriving art scene, seductive nightlife, and stunning architecture while Chechnya’s beautiful natural landscape and extraordinary redevelopment is seen through Viktor’s eyes. A father’s sins are redeemed as he avenges his son’s death, and a bitter, burned man finds his heart.
