Review by Poppy Mae Bee

Poppy Mae Bee rated this 5 stars out of 5

Harrowing but important to watch given our recent issues, the true narrative of how Stalin's inhumane plan to murder millions by starvation is hidden by the very people who are supposed to be responsible and truthful watchdogs (reporters and government officials - British and American).

One very young journalist insists on finding out the truth os where Stalin is getting his money for programs during global economic depression.. The strategy of a discrediting him allows for further passive permission by allied countries for this horror to continue.

James Norton (late of Granchester TV mystery programs) plays the brave Gareth Jones who until now has been hidden from history. Very important and haunting.
