These people survived the Great Patriotic War and immediately ended up in the "death camps" on Kolyma. At least two million people were captured in Germany. This was considered a betrayal of the Motherland, Article 58. The death camps, an innovation of the NKVD, worked flawlessly. It was designed to destroy the “enemies of the people.” No, they didn’t kill, people just couldn’t stand it themselves, beasts and destroyed each other, someone died of disease, cold and hunger. In the film, several rehabilitated prisoners talk about their cruel fate, about what few people know, about what was kept in strict secrecy for many years. These are the nuances of the “Zack” life, wild and cruel. Film 1 – The Story of a Trust Semi-destroyed wooden buildings, empty eye sockets of windows, barracks, stars on towers, a rickety palisade, a wooden bridge - whether 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 protects only the countless bodies of the regime’s victims buried here. It all started in the '30s. Movie 2 - "Face to Face" Freelance workers, former prisoners and children born in the camps continue to testify. The late 30s and early 40s were full of important events for prisoners. At first, changes were expected in connection with the removal of Yezhov and the appointment of Beria. But instead of changes, there were mass shootings. Movie 3 – “The War After the War” From the mountain, on which lies the old cracked “cup” of the high-voltage transmission line, the remains of the camp are visible. Chronicle - soldiers of the Great Patriotic War are met with Victory and flowers. In parallel with these trains there were other trains that did not meet with flowers. Those who traveled in them - prisoners of war, repatriates - from German captivity were sent to Soviet captivity, to camps. They wanted to return to their homeland, but instead received a tribunal and a prison. Denunciations began again, the regime was tightened, handcuffs and numbers were introduced, which now replaced names. Underground organizations were created among prisoners, people went on the run. They were shot, the corpses of the murdered fugitives lay unburied for weeks to intimidate, but they still ran away - chased the excitement of freedom, human dignity. Death was a common occurrence... The authors dedicated this film without guilt to the murdered, our brothers and sisters, who rested anonymously on the cold Kolyma land. close
