About Nikolai Bukharin and his comrades, about Stalin’s repressions of the 30s.

On the life and activities of N.I. Podvoysky (1880-1948), a professional revolutionary and commander of the Red Army.

This documentary on Bukharin was made shortly after his rehabilitation in the USSR under Gorbachev in 1988. Contributors: Fitzroy Maclean (present as a British diplomat at Bukharin's show trial), Anna Larina (Bukharin's widow), Alec Nove, Anthony Kemp-Welch, Arkady Vachsberg, Dmitri Volkogonov. Granted special permission to cover the story and the first interview with Bukharin's widow Anna, Timewatch accompanies Sir Fitzroy Maclean back to the city where he attended Bukharin's trial in 1938.

Exciting life story of Saint Bishop Nikolai Velimirovic is intertwined in the movie with the most important events of the 20th century, in which he was a direct participant. The events on the turn of the century, the Balkan conflicts, World Wars I and II, the coming of communism, led Bishop Nikolai on schooling and doctorates in Europe, missionary work, humanitarian activities, quelling of hostile propaganda towards Serbia in London, work on the formation and strengthening the church in America, spiritual guidance of the church in Serbia, imprisonment and suffering, even enslavement to the infamous concentration camp Dachau. Often more respected abroad than in his own country, Bishop Nikolai died as a refugee in America. Left behind him were tomes of books with thousands of pages, and so much more.

The tragic story of the life of revolutionary and romantic Nikolai Bukharin and his failed attempt to refute the charges against him. In parallel with the trial of Nikolai Bukharin, the whole life of this amazing man, who was ready to die for his ideals, flies before us.

A story of the hard and fateful journey of master glassblower Nikolai Batygin.
