The core idea of this film is to show how important it is not to forget the lessons of history and to draw conclusions from them. The fact that the crimes of Stalinism weren’t legally evaluated in their own time in the form of an international tribunal made the current Russian leadership develop an illusion of permissiveness and impunity. Essentially this caused the revival of Stalinism in the 21st century, with all its features: political terror within their own country, external imperial ambitions, aggresive militarism, the cult of the leader. As for the quality of translations to English in the form of subtitles and the Ukrainian dubbing, they are rather high-quality, clear, sometimes a bit simplified.
