Kazys Jonaitis, nicknamed the "Road Maniac," is considered the most notorious and perhaps the most vicious serial killer in Lithuania. The court has established that he would pick up girls for a ride, knock them unconscious with blows to the head, and rape them. The bodies of three girls were found, although it cannot be ruled out that there may have been more. Only one girl managed to escape from the maniac who was rampaging on the Vilnius-Kaunas road. The filmmakers interview the judge and prosecutor in charge of the case to reveal the details of this gruesome case, as well as obtain an interview with Kazys Jonaitis himself, who is currently serving a life sentence.
