Shooting

Movies
A short documentary. In December 1941, the Nazis shot 4,500 people in Yalta. Most of them were Jews. The Soviet government did not want to bury these people. Even the obelisk at the place of execution was erected after the war with the money of the relatives of the victims. In July 1994, Mikhail Degtyar came to this execution pit and saw a terrible picture, namely, skulls, bones, documents of people shot 53 years ago were scattered very close to the Yalta International Hotel. After 9 years, Mikhail Degtyar again returned to the place of execution of the Yalta Jews.
