Documentary made by Mikhail Mikheev in 1991.
These people survived during the Great Patriotic War and immediately ended up in the "death camps" in the Kolyma. At least two million people were held captive in Germany. This was regarded as a betrayal of the Motherland, article 58. Death camps - an innovation of the NKVD acted flawlessly. It was aimed at destroying the "enemies of the people." No, they did not kill there, people simply could not stand it themselves, they were brutalized and destroyed each other, someone was dying from disease, from cold and hunger. In the film, several rehabilitated prisoners talk about their cruel fate, about what few people know, about what has been kept in strict secrecy for many years. These are the nuances of "prisoners" life, wild and cruel. FILM 1 - "The Story of a Trust" Dilapidated wooden buildings, empty eye sockets of windows, bunks in barracks, stars on towers, a rickety palisade, a wooden bridge - either to freedom, or in conclusion - this is all that remains of one of the countless Stalinist camps. “The stone promised to keep the secret” - now it protects only the countless bodies of victims of the regime, buried here. It all began in the 1930s.
