只要你嘗試爭取公義…
你，就是國家的頭號敵人！
秘密警察Leo（湯哈迪 飾）向來被視為蘇聯的國家英雄，
但自從在莫斯科巿郊的鐵路上發現一具支離破碎、被人開腔剖腹的男童屍體後，
Leo的地位一落千丈、被上級懷疑、妻子Raisa（露美慧柏絲）更被指控為反革命份子…
因為在蘇共鐵幕下，社會主義是人民的天堂，罪案並不存在！誰提出質疑，誰就是叛國罪人！
意圖展開刑事調查的Leo，最終和妻子被流放到偏遠荒涼的地方。
沒想到，這裡又發現了兩具孩子的屍體。同樣，在鐵路附近；同樣，被開腔剖腹。
原來，在莫斯科發現的第1個孩子，其實是第44個！
李奧不理警告展開調查，帶著妻子亡命天涯；面前是不存在的真兇，背後是整個國家機器發動的追殺！

《叛國追凶》4月16日 搶先美國獻映
Former war hero LEO DEMIDOV (Tom Hardy) is the golden boy of Russia’s infamous secret police.
But doing the state’s dirtiest and most brutal work takes a major toll, especially when he must investigate the brutal murder of his own godson.
Despite his misgivings, Leo enforces the party line, insisting the death was an accident.
His beloved wife RAISA (Noomi Rapace) is a Western sympathizer – based on a confession extorted by his envious colleague VASILI.
Crushed but refusing to denounce Raisa, Leo is demoted and the couple is banished to toil in degrading poverty miles outside of Moscow.
While they are there, more children’s bodies appear along the town’s train tracks.
Leo begs his new boss, GENERAL NESTEROV (Gary Oldman), to allow him to investigate the deaths as murders.
Leo’s quest to expose the serial murderer culminates in a nail-biting cat-and-mouse game,
as the lovers struggle to catch the killer before Vasili and his thugs can catch them.
Based on the first novel in author Tom Rob Smith’s best-selling trilogy,
CHILD 44 tells the story of a man fighting to reclaim his humanity from a system that requires him to sacrifice it in order to survive.
