Mystery of the Norilsk revolt

Mystery of the Norilsk revolt

Mihail Tkachuk / Ukraine / 2006 / 90 min

The revolt of the political prisoners in the Norilsk camp is one of the forgotten pages of our history.In summer 1953 the prisoners openly expressed their protest against the inhumane
upkeep conditions in the camp.The revolt was initiated by Ukrainians,who had got their experience in the Ukrainian Rebellion Army and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists.
It was not by chance,that many members of this revolt called it the "Spiritual Revolt".
Similar parallels can be drawn with the "Orange Revolution".
