Synopsis

*The Soviet Story* is a documentary that presents a critical perspective on the history of the Soviet Union, portraying it as an Allied power that, according to the film, aided Nazi Germany in the persecution of Jews and committed mass killings of its own citizens on an industrial scale. The film claims that with support from the West, the Soviet Union achieved victory on May 9, 1945, and that its atrocities were subsequently suppressed and largely ignored, with the full account of what it describes as Europe’s most murderous regime never having been fully revealed—until the making of this documentary.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
