The Government Inspector
By Nikolai Gogul
Directed by Martin Nestor
"In The Government Inspector I decided to gather into one heap everything rotten in Russia as I saw it, all the injustices which are perpetrated in those in those places and in those circumstances where justice is most required of a man; I decided to hold everything up to ridicule at once" - Gogul.
