a| A chilling examination of the secret workings of the Soviet Union's feared secret police, told through a glimpse into the organization's own confidential film archives. The first part, "The Early Years (1917-1933)", shows how the organization's beginnings can be traced back to the Cheka - the Extraordinary Commission for Fighting Counterrevolution and Sabotage - founed in 1917 by Felix Dzerzinsky. The Cheka perfected its art of espionage, political assassinations and rigged trials as Bolsheviks consolidated power. The second part, "The Professionals (1934-1953)", shows how during Stalin's rule, the Soviewt secret police became the ultimate tool of control over the country. In the 1930's and the 1940's the KGB - then the NKVD - orchestrated the mass purges and consolidated immense resources and political power to permeate every aspect of Soviet reality.
