Andrei Chikatilo is perhaps the most famous serial maniac of the Soviet era. The court proved that he had committed 53 murders, while according to the investigation, the criminal accounted for more than 65 victims. It took 12 years to catch the elusive Ripper. And psychiatrist Alexander Bukhanovsky played a significant role in his arrest and subsequent proof of guilt. The film “Stop Chikatilo” refers to those long-standing bloody events, revealing previously not widely covered details of this terrible case.
The audience of the film has a unique opportunity to hear an interview with Bukhanovsky, recorded shortly before the death of the doctor. He was able to develop a unique technique that allows you to determine the predisposition to commit murder. The patients of the famous psychiatrist will take part in the program “Stop Chikatilo”: they will tell about how the doctor helped them get rid of a dangerous disease, overcome obsessions and manias, which without proper treatment may well turn into a tragedy similar to the one that shook the Rostov region and the south of the country for more than a decade. close
