Plot synopsis
This film tells about the famous Soviet physicist Pyotr Kapitsa. For what merits did the President of the Royal Society of London, the great scientist Ernst Rutherford, hire Pyotr Kapitsa, who had come from Russia, in 1921? How did Stalin manage to return the already famous European physicist to his homeland? How did the relationship between Kapitsa and Beria develop on the atomic project? Who provoked the Holodomor of the 1930s? Who turned the "Karaganda State Farm-OGPU giant" into Karlag - Karaganda camp - one of the largest cemeteries of prisoners? The answers to these and other questions are in the next episode of the documentary series.
