The Red Empire
The story of an empire: From its founding in 1922 to its dissolution in 1991, the Soviet Union was shaped by revolutionary idealism, but also by oppression and decay. The USSR evolved from Stalinist terror through the Thaw under Khrushchev to political processes such as glasnost and perestroika under Gorbachev. Finally, in 1991, it collapsed.
Cast: Nadja Schulz-Berlinghoff, Annette Gerhardt, Marina Behnke, Max Volkert Martens, Thomas Dehler
