These people survived the Second World War and immediately fell in the "death camp", the Kolyma. At least two million people were in captivity in Germany. This was seen as a betrayal of the motherland, Article 58. Death camps - an innovation NKVD operated flawlessly. It was aimed at the destruction of the "enemies of the people".

No, they did not kill, people simply do not stand up, zvereli and destroy each other, someone died from disease, cold and hunger. In the film, several of rehabilitated prisoners talk about their cruel fate, that very few people know that was held in strict secrecy for years. This nuance "convict" life, wild and fierce.

MOVIE 1 - "The Story of a trust" Dilapidated wooden buildings, empty eye sockets of windows, bunks in the barracks, the stars in the towers, a rickety fence, a wooden bridge - either to freedom, whether in the end - is all that remains of one of the countless Stalin camps. "Stone promised to keep secret" - now it protects only the countless bodies of victims of the regime, were buried here. It all started in the 30s ..

MOVIE 2 - "Face to Face" civilian workers, former prisoners and the children born in the camps continue to show. The end of the 30's - early 40's. for prisoners abounded important events. First expected changes due to the removal of Yezhov and Beria's appointment. But instead of change went indiscriminate shootings ...

MOVIE 3 - "The war after the war" from the mountain, which has a cracked old "cup" high-voltage transmission lines, are the ruins of the camp. Chronicle - soldiers of the Great Patriotic meet with victory and with flowers. In parallel with these trains were other trains that are not met by flowers. Those who traveled in them - military prisoners, immigrants - from German captivity were sent to the Soviet prisoners in the camp. They wanted to return home, but instead received a tribunal and jail. Began again denunciations, to tighten, and the handcuffs were put numbers that are now replaced with the names .... Among prisoners created underground organizations, people went into hiding. They are shot, dead bodies lay unburied for weeks fugitives to frighten, but they still ran - drove the excitement of freedom and human dignity. Death was a common thing ... This film authors have devoted innocently murdered, our brothers and sisters, found peace in Kolyma anonymously on cold ground.

The film, "Example of Intonation" is not an exhortation to colleagues or spectators in how we should look, talk, think, how to show. "Example" - as an experience, as a test, as an attempt. I do not hide their sympathy for the hero, do not hide the tragic premonition, which, of course, may not coincide with reality. If the leader of the Russian parliament, a character you have seen a great politician and felt - Man with me and that's enough.

We are all people indefinitely

The film "Example of Intonation" can be read in different ways, but you can not read at all. Personally for me - this is an example of how you can for 47 minutes to destroy the myth of the "superhuman" strength of man and that in 1991 - it is really a year of freedom. Well, if the "leader of the Russian parliament, a character more politicians we looked and felt the man" - the author really means did the trick. The film is particularly important, even significant look now, from the perspective of evaluation of the events of twenty years ago.

In the middle of the film, the music of Verdi's opera "Nabucco" and "chorus of slaves" mourn his freedom. In the history of music literature, this aria became a symbol of hope for the future. Neither is whether the Russians had in 1991, the year?
