- 2000 ----- color ----- 85 min ----- vhs

Traces Yeltsin's climb to the top of the communist Party and his personal power struggle withMikhail Gorbachev. Interviews with opposition leaders as well as many of Yeltsin's top advisers, including Eduard Shevardnadze, Boris Nemtsov, and Yeltsin's wife, Naina, provide a candid appraisal of a man who changed the course of world history. (Closed-Captioned)
