Plot synopsis
Documentary film dedicated to the trial of eight Nazi collaborators held in Krasnodar in 1963. The film combines footage shot during the interrogations and the trial with archive footage, filmed during the liberation by the Red Army. It is one of the first to clearly evoke the Jewishness of the victims. This work of justice carried out by the Soviets is, in the film, opposed to the desire to forget attributed to capitalist countries.
