In history, he left a bright trace of the man who “gave free rein” to the Soviet people. He grew out of the “Khrushchev thaw” and at all stages of his career, rising to the very heights of power, remained true to his belief that the Soviet system can make its citizens free. Documentary film "Mikhail Gorbachev:" He came to give us freedom" - reflection Leonid Parfenov about the personality of Mikhail Gorbachev, about his deeds and deeds and about the role he played in the history of our country.
Asked what goals Gorbachev saw in the reformation he was pursuing, whether the collapse of the Soviet Union was inevitable, and how Mikhail Sergeyevich managed to preserve his dignity by leaving power, Mikhail Gorbachev: He came to give us freedom" tries to understand the main thing - how did the Stavropol guy grow up in himself and carry his inner freedom throughout his life and share it with all citizens of the country? And yet there was so much will that many of us even thought it was too much. Freedom, for which most citizens did not fight, was gratuitously gained and just as gratuitously left.

Alexey Pivovarov and NTV channel present the documentary “June 22”. Fatal decisions, timed to the 70th anniversary of the beginning of the Great Patriotic War.

"Serf heroes". However, unlike previous projects, in this, in addition to recreated large-scale historical reconstructions and computer graphics, which allows, along with newsreels, better to imagine the events of those years, there are some features.

Is it true that Stalin believed Hitler and rejected any reports from Soviet intelligence, which was claimed to have given the exact date of the attack months before the war began? Authors of the film "June 22". Fatal decisions trace the whole chain of events that began in 1938, with the Munich Treaty, and led to the beginning of one of the bloodiest wars in world history.

Millions of families in the Soviet Union were affected in one way or another by this dramatic process, as a result of which a stratum of strong rural owners was destroyed as a class.

The program is attended by Alexei Serebryakov, Chulpan Khamatova, Boris Nevzorov. close
