Khrushchev: The Bear's Embrace
- 1978 ----- color ----- 24 min ----- 16mm
- The decade of Nikita Khrushchev saw the Soviet Union thrust into a critical position of international leadership, power and prestige. It represented a marked switch from the authoritarian policies of Stalin to an absolutism tempered by a more personal rule. Shows Khrushchev's movement within the Communist Party in the Ukraine, through the Stalin era, his ascension to Party Secretary, his rise to full leadership, his final collapse and removal. Shows how he provided the crucial link between the closed world of Stalinist Russia and the realities of contemporary international considerations.
- Topics: (Biography, History: Russian, East European and Central Asian, Soviet Union)
