S1·E3 – Kolyma

Hundreds of thousands of peasants, workers, and intellectuals were sent to the Kolyma Gulags to mine gold during the 25 years of Stalinist rule. These vast, isolated wilderness camps are visited for the first time by a film crew whose record of this desolate landscape is intercut with the memories of prisoners and enforcers.
