Krushchev – The Peasant Premier (1994x12)

:

In the centenary year of his birth, and using previously unseen home movies, this film explores the contradictions of the Ukranian peasant's son. He contributed to the crises in Berlin and Cuba, yet he hated the arms race. As Stalin's henchman he had plenty of blood on his hands, yet he denounced his former master and ensured that the terrorwould never return.
