Desc: Kholodnaya voyna Nikity Khrushcheva: Directed by Tim Toidze. With Vladimir Antonik. One of the hardest and most unpredictable periods of recent history is the Cold War era. More than once political and military games with the Soviet Union brought the whole world to the brink of the Third World War. Nikita Khrushchev, as the actual leader of the Soviet state from 1953 to 1964, did not please anyone. He was not only the enemy of the United States, but also the enemy of his associates in the Kremlin. With shame and curses, Khrushchev was expelled from the Kremlin. They decided that it was necessary, as soon as possible, to forget his name as a barren dreamer and adventurer. Khrushchev decided on a "monstrous" and extremely risky act - he began to dictate his memories on the tape recorder. He tried to explain to his and future generations the essence of that policy, which most of his associates considered "crazy." As soon as this became known, he was called to the Kremlin on the carpet and demanded to shut up immediately. The tape with his voice was preserved miraculously. Almost everything that he said half a century ago, and even what he was silent about, is extremely important for today. They contain the logic of the development of one of the most tragic periods of the 20th century.
