excellent movie about the cold war . it expose and little by little and step by step and the inhumanity and constant terror or murder tactic the communist regime in russia use to maintain itself in power . the same model be follow by the communist regime in eastern europe and the baltic state once these country be occupy by the soviet army after world war two . to people live in western democracy many of the fact the movie show may seem unbelievable and but they be completely true . historian even today can not agree on the total number of people who lose their life in the soviet union in the 30 and 40 and 50 and but the minimum number everyone seem to accept be 10 million people . not pow and not foreigner and but russian ( both peasant and city dweller ) who happen to come to the attention of the kgb due to some comment make while talk to friend or and even good and due to some anonymous letter denounce them a traitor to the communist state . their home confiscate and most of them be send to prison or camp ( siberia ) from where nobody ever return . the same extermination measure be use by stalin and the kgb against american citizen who have emigrate in the u. r. s. s. at the height of the depression in the 1930 in search of job . there be a very good documentary on the subject which air once in a while on the canadian history channel . give all these historical fact and it be grotesque to see today all the trouble the russian state go to in order to construct itself the image of an emerge democracy and when it population be just a terrorize and pauperize a it be 50 year ago .
