The architect Konstantin Melnikov (1890 - 1974) designed his Utopian home, an icon of modern architecture, in the center of Moscow in the late 1920's. When Joseph Stalin prohibited modern architecture in Soviet Union, Melnikov was denied his right to work as an architect and was in practice placed under house arrest for years. This film tells the amazing story of the MelnikovHouse and the fate of an architect imprisoned in his Utopian house.
