After initially being restricted to Moscow, Jones defies the authorities and travels towards Soviet Ukraine, where he witnesses the unpleasant truth about the Holodomor. Based on real events, Mr. Jonestells the ever-more-relevant story of struggling for truths in a world often dominated by fictions.
