Stanisław Kosior was one of the most powerful Communist leaders in the Soviet Union and a key figure behind the policies that led to the Holodomor, the Great Ukrainian Famine of 1932–1933 that killed millions.
As First Secretary of the Communist Party of Ukraine, Kosior helped enforce collectivization, grain confiscations, deportations, and brutal repression against peasants. Villages were blockaded, food was seized, and millions were left to starve.
Yet the same system he helped build eventually consumed him. During Stalin’s Great Purge, Kosior was arrested by the NKVD, brutally tortured, and forced to confess to fabricated crimes before being executed in 1939.
This film explores the rise, crimes, and downfall of the man who helped engineer one of the twentieth century’s greatest tragedies—only to become a victim of the terror he served.
