00:001945, Nazi Germany surrenders. Europe is in ruins.

00:05But one country, against all odds, stands out among the winners.

00:08The Soviet Union, nearly 27 million dead,

00:12entire towns razed, families decimated.

00:16And yet the Soviet people are jubilant.

00:19He survived hell. He crushed Hitler.

00:23And at its head, one man, Joseph Stalin.

00:25The whole world celebrates his name.

00:27In Moscow, the crowd shouts its glory.

00:30The statues stand.

00:32History textbooks only talk about one man.

00:35Worship becomes religion.

00:37Stalin is the architect of victory.

00:40And no one dares to recall that this victory,

00:43he built it on the blood of his own people.

00:45But this glory does not calm him.

00:48She intoxicates him. She strengthens him.

00:50Behind the winner's smile,

00:53the tyrant never disappeared.

00:54He waits. He watches.

00:56He is preparing the sequel.

00:59After the war,

01:00The Soviet army is not going home.

01:02She stays.

01:03In Poland.

01:04In Hungary.

01:04In Czechoslovakia.

01:06Officially to guarantee peace.

01:08In reality, to impose a new power.

01:11Local communist parties,

01:12often marginal,

01:13receive help from Moscow.

01:15Propaganda, repression, targeted assassination.

01:18In a few years,

01:19All of Eastern Europe falls under Soviet control.

01:21In Budapest,

01:23Boucarest,

01:24Sofia or Warsaw,

01:25history repeats itself.

01:27Democracies are collapsing,

01:28one by one.

01:29People no longer choose.

01:31They obey or disappear.

01:33The political police changes its name,

01:35but no method.

01:36Torture becomes a tool of governance.

01:39Fear,

01:40a common language.

01:41The world is discovering a new reality.

01:44The USSR did not liberate Europe.

01:46She won her back.

01:47And between East and West,

01:49a curtain falls.

01:50A curtain of silence,

01:52of censorship

01:52and barbed wire.

01:54The Iron Curtain.

01:56The war is over,

01:57but Stalin continues his.

01:59He no longer fights Hitler.

02:01Now he is fighting his own people.

02:03Soldiers returned from the front

02:04hoped for honors.

02:06They find the surveillance.

02:07Intellectuals were waiting for freedom.

02:10They discover censorship.

02:12Even war heroes become suspect.

02:14A medal no longer protects.

02:16A misinterpreted idea,

02:17little condemned.

02:18In 1946,

02:20The NKVD changes its name.

02:22It becomes the MGB.

02:24Ministry of State Security.

02:26New acronym.

02:27Same method.

02:28Night arrest.

02:30Endless interrogation.

02:31Silent deportation.

02:33Terror is no longer so loud

02:35than in 1937.

02:37She became colder,

02:39more invisible

02:40and just as relentless.

02:42And then,

02:42a new type of enemy appears,

02:44the cosmopolitan intellectual.

02:46In 1948,

02:48The Soviet Union recognizes the State of Israel.

02:51Stalin saw this as a political blow against the West.

02:54But very quickly,

02:55the situation is turning around.

02:56He begins to suspect dual loyalty

02:58among Soviet Jews.

03:00The party never talks about anti-Semitism.

03:03He prefers to talk about

03:04intellectual parasites,

03:06of citizens without roots,

03:08of dubious loyalties.

03:09But everyone understands.

03:11Writers are censored.

03:13Theaters are closed.

03:14Jewish leaders

03:16are discreetly eliminated.

03:18Power is being prepared.

03:19He shapes a narrative.

03:21A tale of fear,

03:22of treason,

03:23of purification.

03:25State anti-Semitism

03:26is just beginning.

03:28His time will come soon.

03:29The population,

03:30She,

03:31keep silent.

03:32She hoped for a freer future.

03:34She finds oppression

03:35more sneaky.

03:36less visible than purges

03:38from 1937.

03:40But just as paralyzing,

03:42the war is over,

03:44but the nightmare,

03:45him,

03:45continue.

03:47Stalin is getting old,

03:49but his paranoia,

03:50She,

03:50does not weaken.

03:51He no longer trusts

03:52to no one,

03:53not even to its oldest

03:55companions,

03:56Molotov,

03:56Malenkov,

03:57Kaganovich.

03:58All are monitored,

03:59humiliated,

04:00tested.

04:01Politburo meetings

04:02become trials.

04:03The endless dinners,

04:05scenes of domination.

04:07A wrong word,

04:08one silence too many.

04:09And the fall can be immediate.

04:12In October 1952,

04:14Stalin summons

04:15the 19th party congress.

04:17This is the first one

04:17for 13 years.

04:19He takes advantage of it

04:19to remodel

04:20the apparatus of power

04:21as he pleases.

04:22He weakens the old ones,

04:24promotes the obscure,

04:26confuses alliances.

04:27Some see it

04:28a tactical maneuver.

04:30Others,

04:30the prelude

04:31of a new purge.

04:32A final purge,

04:34definitive.

04:35And a few months later,

04:36things are speeding up.

04:38In January 1953,

04:41the Soviet press

04:42reveals a state scandal.

04:44Several doctors,

04:45mostly Jewish,

04:46are accused

04:47to have tried

04:47to murder

04:48the highest leaders

04:49of the country.

04:50This is the plot

04:50white coats.

04:52The confessions were obtained

04:53under torture.

04:54The evidence is fabricated.

04:56But in the press,

04:57in the street,

04:58in speeches,

04:59hatred grows.

05:00Hangings are demanded,

05:02public trials,

05:04examples.

05:05In secret,

05:06Stalin goes even further.

05:07He validates a plan

05:08of mass deportation

05:10Jews from Moscow.

05:11Train,

05:12camp,

05:12list,

05:13everything is ready.

05:14The operation must begin.

05:16In March 19153.

05:19But it will never happen.

05:21Stalin spends the evening

05:22in his dacha

05:23as often.

05:24He dines with his loved ones.

05:25Beria,

05:26Malenkov,

05:27Khrushchev,

05:27Bulganin.

05:28He laughs,

05:29he drinks,

05:30he insults.

05:31Then he withdraws

05:31in his apartments

05:32and does not reappear.

05:34For hours,

05:35no one dares to enter.

05:36The guards are waiting,

05:38terrified.

05:39It's only the next day

05:40that we find him on the ground.

05:41Unconscious,

05:42paralyzed,

05:43soaked in urine,

05:44but still alive.

05:46And yet,

05:47he receives no care.

05:48No doctor is called

05:49before the next evening.

05:51Those who could save him

05:52are in prison.

05:53The famous conspiracy doctors,

05:55arrested on the orders of the same man

05:57that he should be treating today.

05:59For four days,

06:00Stalin is dying.

06:01He is breastfeeding,

06:02drool,

06:02delirium,

06:03nobody cries,

06:04no one is happy either.

06:06Everyone holds their breath,

06:08the master of the USSR

06:09is at death's door.

06:11And no one dares to kill him.

06:12But no one dares to save him either.

06:15He died on March 5, 1953

06:17at 9:50 p.m.

06:19In his room,

06:20the silence is total.

06:21Even his death inspires fear.

06:23On March 6, 1953,

06:27the announcement falls.

06:28Joseph Stalin is dead.

06:30Millions of Soviets

06:31parade to see his body.

06:33Some people cry genuinely.

06:35Others,

06:36by reflex

06:37or out of fear.

06:38In the streets of Moscow,

06:39the crowd is dense.

06:40In the corridors of power,

06:42the silence is heavy.

06:43But it's a silence of relief.

06:45The tyrant is no longer there.

06:47And already,

06:47succession struggles begin.

06:49For several months,

06:51power remains shared.

06:52Beria tries to gain the upper hand,

06:55but he is quickly arrested.

06:57Then executed.

06:58Gradually,

06:59a man imposes himself,

07:00Nikita Khrushchev.

07:02Discreet infidel,

07:03skillful,

07:04patient.

07:04And in 1956,

07:06in front of the party executives,

07:08he does the unthinkable,

07:09he breaks the silence.

07:11In a secret speech,

07:12Khrushchev denounces

07:13Stalin's crimes.

07:15The purges,

07:16deportations,

07:17the cult of personality.

07:19The shock is immense.

07:20Some collapse,

07:22others refuse to believe it.

07:24This is the beginning of de-Stalinization.

07:26Statues are being toppled,

07:28cities are renowned,

07:29rewritten school textbooks.

07:32The prisons are slowly emptying.

07:34The Gulag is retreating.

07:35Families find their dead,

07:38on archive lists.

07:39But fear,

07:40She,

07:40doesn't disappear so quickly.

07:42Stalin is dead,

07:43but his shadow still looms

07:44over entire generations.

07:46He shaped an empire in his own image,

07:48an empire built on blood,

07:50submission

07:51and silence.

07:53And for 30 years,

07:54no one had dared to pronounce

07:55his name otherwise,

07:56only to glorify him.

07:58Until the day when history

07:59caught up with him.
