The main thing in the theme of "Novocherskassk events of 1962" is not a contrast between the dark and light sides of life. A similar contrast exists to some extent in any era and in any society.
The main thing is the question - how, approximately 17 years after the end of the nationwide Great Patriotic War, the army directed its weapons against its own people? How did some forces manage to step over morality, to step over history ...
How did it happen that the victorious army directed its weapons against its own people - the people who also fought against fascism? Who managed to organize this and how? How was the anti-Hitler ideology (characteristic of the anti-Hitler coalition of the Allied Powers) replaced in this incident by an anti-popular ideology? ..
Initially it was reported that the cost of the film is 150 million rubles ...
A big money...
It would seem that there are fewer and fewer useful idiots in the West ...
