The Death of Stalin is a 2017 satirical black comedy directed by Armando Iannucci (The Thick of It, In the Loop, Veep) and based on the French graphic novel La mort de Staline. Set in 1953 Soviet Union, the film depicts the power struggle following the death of Joseph Stalin.
The AK-47 is used by Marshal of the Soviet Union Georgy Zhukov (Jason Isaacs) (incorrectly referred to as Field Marshal in the movie) and other Red Army officers and soldiers during the coup against Beria. One of Stalin's guards carries an AK-47.
