Shakhristan

Two powerful families gather at the Shakhristan restaurant to celebrate an engagement. Before the night is over, the bride’s father is found murdered. With the killer believed to be among the guests, renowned investigator Sapar Sharipov locks down the venue and begins a high-stakes overnight investigation. Secrets unravel, alliances shift, and no one is above suspicion. By morning, he must uncover the truth — or let a killer walk free.
