In the shadows of the Soviet Union, young Anfisa Petrova comes of age with a stark awareness of her budding femininity, but with the lingering trauma of her past. Raised in a family distant from communist ideologies, she finds solace in the love of her mother and grandfather. However, fate thrusts her into a chilling reality at seventeen, forcing her to confront the harrowing experience of being a woman prisoner in the USSR. These trials shape her decisions in life, ultimately leading her to part ways with her first husband a cunning art thief who exploits the vulnerabilities of the waning Soviet era. Love in Communism weaves a story of resilience, love, and the pursuit of personal liberty against a backdrop of political turmoil, repression, and suspicion.
