ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
City of Thieves by David Benioff is set during the brutal Siege of Leningrad in World War II, following two unlikely companions: Lev, a young Jewish teenager, and Kolya, a Russian deserter. Both are thrust into a perilous mission to find a dozen eggs for a Soviet colonel in exchange for their survival. As they journey through a starving and war-torn city, they encounter danger, moral dilemmas, and dark humor. The novel explores themes of survival, friendship, and the absurdities of war, blending moments of horror with unexpected levity, all while depicting the resilience of the human spirit.
