Bread Guillotine

Ukraine 2008

Genre Documentary

Director Іhor Kobrin

The film was made before the 75th Anniversary of the 1932-33 Famine in Ukraine. The documentary reveals the causes, the course and the extent of this terrifying recent history. The name of the film reflects the formula of terror invented by Vladimir Lenin, which allowed the Bolsheviks to keep peoples in full obedience for seven decades. It was this formula that led to the tragic social and humanitarian catastrophe of the Ukrainian nation, the consequences of which have not yet been overcome today.

The series has an unusual design for the documentary and consists of three monologues ("The King of Famine", "The Great Fracture" and "The Silent Bell") on behalf of different characters: the Bolshevik who participated directly in those tragic events, the peasant who fell victim to it activities, and finally our contemporary, who learned about the Holodomor more than half a century ago.

Missing (missing detectives)

Ukraine

Genre Detective

Thousands of people disappear every year. In search of some relatives or friends turn to the police. Time passes, and the search stops under the slogan: "no body - no business." But the man is gone! What is his fate? Found him or does he continue to be listed as missing? Nobody is purposefully doing this.

And finally, this problem was noticed at the top. A small department has been set up in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to search for missing people. Now their task is to find not only people from old reports, but also the latest reports of disappearances. The main characters must penetrate everywhere, and therefore must be with appropriate behavior. When necessary, they are police officers, and if circumstances so require, they are either victims or accomplices of any events they investigate.

It's just an idea. The series can be many.
