Season 1 • Episode 3
LatestHundreds of thousands of peasants, workers, and intellectuals were sent to the Kolyma Gulags to mine gold during the 25 years of Stalinist rule. These vast, isolated wilderness camps are visited for the first time by a film crew whose record of this desolate landscape is intercut with the memories of prisoners and enforcers.
Examining the legacy of Stalin's 25 years of crimes against humanity through the experiences of victims and perpetrators, the films also show how people's memories of that time persist in the present day. Some victims who have stayed silent for over 50 years now speak out.
