The Trial

In 1930, Moscow, USSR, a group of esteemed economists and engineers were put on trial, accused of plotting a coup d'état against the Soviet government. The charges were fabricated and the punishment for the accused, if convicted, was death. The trial was a sham, with false testimony and forced confessions, and the outcome was a foregone conclusion. This documentary takes a closer look at the events leading up to the trial, the trial itself, and the tragic fate of the accused.
