NOTES
Title from title frames
Against the wishes of the authorities, 60-year-old Yuri Dmitriev searches for mass graves from the era of Stalin’s terror against his own people - until one day he is arrested and sentenced to 15 years in a penal colony. While abroad there is increasing recognition for this “archaeologist of terror,” in Russia Dmitriev is discredited as someone collaborating with the West. Jessica Gorter's THE DMITRIEV AFFAIR is a prescient examination of the growing despotism of the Russian legal system and the methods used to silence those who challenge official state narratives
