March of the Liberators

Movies
The film presents a new light on scenes of World War II and the role it played in the outbreak of Stalin's policy. Braun, using many previously unknown to the public materials from Russian archives, based inter alia on the relationship of the former GRU officer, Viktor Suvorov, presents a number of evidence that the Soviets are at least co-responsible for the outbreak of war. But this is not the end The director clearly suggests that the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact and the Soviet seizure of eastern Polish territories and the Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Moldova would be only a prelude to Stalin's attack on the whole of Europe and bring it communism. Hitler's attack on the USSR of 22 June 1941, thwarted those plans. The defeat of the Soviets in this battle, despite possessing a powerful and well-armed army, confirmed - according to Braun - the Communist thesis about the preparations for an attack, not defense.
