In this documentary the harrowing Nazino tragedy is examined, a little‑known episode of Stalin’s rule. In the winter of 1933 the Soviet regime forced 6,000 men, women and children deemed “unwanted” from Moscow and Leningrad onto a remote Siberian island, providing neither food nor clothing. The film revisits the site decades later, revealing its lingering scars.
