Everyone Has to Die

A gloomy old man Klim lives all alone and keeps himself to himself. Nobody knows what he does for a living, and his neighbours are suddenly in fear of him when they discover that he used to be a police officer. One day Klim’s old friend from the police force, Ivan, who lives in another city, invites him to stay for a few days. Klim accepts the invitation, but when his battered old car refuses to start, he decides to take the overnight train instead. Klim arrives at Ivan’s house the next morning, but it is too late. Ivan has been found dead.
