“And Shepilov who joined them” is a documentary drama based on true historical facts. The story revolves around the failed attempt to remove Nikita Khrushchev from the post of head of state in 1957.
Dmitry Trofimovich Shepilov was an intelligent and educated man, a talented scientist and military man who passed the entire war and rose to the rank of major-general. At the end of the war, close to Stalin, he worked as editor-in-chief of the newspaper "Pravda", entered the Central Committee of the party, became a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences, later - Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Being already an associate of Khrushchev, he took part in the attempt of Molotov, Malenkov, Kaganovich and others to remove Khrushchev, criticizing him for establishing his own “cult of personality”. Shepilov’s surname was named among the members of the “factional anti-party group” that opposed the “Leninist course.” The statement about the “rebellion” ended “... and Shepilov joined them.” This phrase later became almost winged, turning into a kind of cliché, from which Shepilov could not get rid of.
