a steel worker who had the winners and losers. where do we stand? starts january 5th on d, w. ah, for centrist the kremlin chimes have been counting the hours and minutes and mocking, changing times, and eras. for those who don't know well, maybe have forgotten. i will remind you that the times and deer is changed surprisingly regularly and 20th century russia. in 1917, the bolsheviks overthrew the czar and replaced him with a communist governments for the following 70 years. then in 1991 after mikhail gorbachev, perestroika reforms, the russian people overthrew the reds and voted boris yeltsin in as president. in the countries fast democratic elections. however,

with freedom came the economic crisis and the fast chechen war, whilst yeltsin was anointed modern days are and then his health started to fail. this is how russia entered the new century and the new millennium. being a documentary film director, i recorded what was going on around me. this film is my personal witness testimony about the events of one single momentous year . from the 31st of december 1999 to the 31st of december, 2000. she

for the freedom of russia as a whole, there must be for the freedom of the media with their food and when so the freedom of the media will be guaranteed with fish and with people are really curious. they've all gathered here the i will ensure press freedom of nobody appreciates the freedom in this country. here with jim wilson. we know you are wrong, we do appreciate it. thank you. take care bye. by nightfall. all the key figures in the campaign had gathered in the campaign office . it's important i introduce them to you may hi

mikhail castiano of prime minister of russia during putin's 1st term, or so later went into opposition. he was persecuted and publicly humiliated after a tv show screened a hidden shooting of his intimate life flat . his laugh. so a cough was the kremlin main ideology list and held senior positions between 2002013. he was demoted after pu tim returned for his 3rd term in office. with valentine, you must have was boris yelton's, chief of staff, and the 1st person yeltsin spoke to after the election. results were announced in 2002, you must have married yelton's daughter. tatiana anatoly to pies was co leader of the union of right forces. and parliament, and one of the architects of economic reform in russia, as well as

a close associate of boris nance off. after putin's 1st term, his party lost all its seats in parliament and went into opposition against the new with whom you go to school. so you forgot to put in the loop with the emotional unavoidable father amused slash something in the middle of with the struggling with blue just that. ruben. but almost the nick understood absolutely. before his new cavellas, the sequel a technology leadership eventual alicia thought no, no he still gonna maybe shouldn't washington blake and couldn't get over fresh. so we'll talk a schlepping accompanying it or that new those you we 3 now is bible. and the other

just a year later, russia's best channel would be broken up and nationalized with a decision. even now, looking through the footage, i can hear barest net. tom's voice coming from the t. v against the hubbub in the winners campaign headquarters. i turn up the volume. russia with nick, i give

a positive history semester with no joke, invoice, student, virginia hotel. mr. simmons is on one of the movies. users don't wish to. she just goes to mister mussa. lucy brushwood worked for you to be able to have him do them for ready. give my visit with you with this issue with hello susan, this is lucy, alicia student, attorney littleton. deductible will not lose the doors lose our system. so new doors on the moon of that tomorrow was to stretch out for many years. in the autumn of 2015,

the body of the millionaire maker lesson was found with head injuries in a cheap hotel in washington dc with and in the winter of that same year, boris nance off who had joined the opposition to putin, was shot right under the walls of the kremlin, strangely enough, most of the people who worked for putin's victory and stood shoulder to shoulder with him when he was elected. have today either gone into opposition or been dismissed. like, alexander vall, ocean, the kremlin chief of staff and even put his wifely miller, whom he divorced the only person still with him at least for now is to me 3 met v i. d f, who became interim president of russia between putin 2nd and 3rd terms. ah,

vladimir putin took power like a hot knife slicing through butter co, opting a submissive state apparatus, ready and waiting to follow its new leader. although the state was as yet still unfamiliar with the concept of vertical power, the subordination of everything from parliament to the economy to one single command center was already going into high gear. although the oligarch michael caught a kosky, hadn't been imprisoned yet, and mtv was still daring to criticize the president. as for example, over his handling of the loss of the could nuclear submarine, it was already becoming quite obvious that it was better not to cross the president . the ghosts of the past were reappearing and trying to make up for what had been lost in the present. soon, vladimir putin, the president of the russian federation, would call the collapse of the soviet empire, the great, his geopolitical tragedy of the 20th century.

meanwhile i went on shooting my film, which was now about the elected president, followed by a film about life in the kremlin. it seemed that nothing radically changed during the 1st year of putin's presidency, just details and nuances that seemed insignificant. at 1st glance, for example, the president signed a federal law returning the banner of victory over fascism to the army. ah well, what banner did they hoist over the rocks? target 1945. the red soviet flag of course with its star hammer and sickle. and although the tripler was still the national flag of russia,

the presidential guard swore allegiance to the red flag of our old soviet homeland, hulu. you muslin to somebody's oh, machine. oh, the more the gives you. the new president also brought a new inner circle to the kremlin equal section putins. former deputy in saint petersburg became one of its main figures. it was set chin who was seen as the prime mover in bringing the business community to heal and imprisoning. mccalla caught a cold ski,

sketching would take over his head to frozen after the oil company that swallowed up, caught a cough skis you caused after his arrest. mm hm with yeah, i got to be funny that he got that example. could i get out of you know them because they didn't pay more. holds him not to them directly myself because eleanor stanley, which must i'm sure she does kaiser. does that. huh. when you enter the field, don't be with, with you from

a di da dominic william. so miss you my work resulted in an official film that was ad on russian state t v on the 1st anniversary of putins presidency and was shown in many countries of the world. even today, i'm not ashamed of it. in fact, it seems to have matured and shows a lot that had gone unnoticed at the time. however, i am still being asked if anything was left on the cutting room floor. it was, for example, this a bit of a shift turned on your camera again. sure. yeah, my girl goes, i have, ah, i should though goes with about the way people live it recently. i was in lensky and some woman, not yet elderly, but also not younger, said to me marie, give us back our old life videos ish the way it was 20 years ago,

and i'm thinking she's looking for a ranch. what can you say to that? it's impossible to get anything back yet and you think you can neither recover your youth nor bygone days than you will of this year she produced. moreover, if we tried to return to the well, get them up, but they will definitely destroy everything we went over to ensure that people aren't doing worse than they did before. you had better would've been willing it look, that is something we can do. reach him right. i lose it the most to say say this is such a candid conversations. i cannot help it ask, why did you restore the old soviet handsome? ah, it would frontier, this is connected with what i just said. you may be the one that you knew you were still on the ground. it is necessary to restore the citizens confidence in the establishment. ah, the essentially means that woman that a yes. who said we should give back her old life cannibal the way it was 20 years ago. there's no malicious ability, but just to people shouldn't feel that they are being deprived of something like

net e o u. she has to grow old, but we have to live on ah, no with no, no, no. none, none of them finish those. yes, you're right. we have to live on. what goes on is with the why do you think we should live with this music rather than that, she will when you move them a switching. when we listen to the anthem, written by alexandra alligator, why can't we think about our victory in world war 2? the rather than the gulag. she was an obsession. why should we necessarily associate this music with the worst aspects of life during the soviet period that i mean as reason? yes, sir, thank you for you. with that conversation about the anthem, i was trying to find out why putin thought the state should return to the past at all. especially when today's russia still has not yet come to terms with it and young are those they. but as i told you, it would hardly be possible to restore things, a true stories or

a truth social. but it's really important to sense that the majority of the population has a certain style. jackie, you must not deprive people of everything you should you. this is the moral aspect with you. this is what i think about when i remember my parents at the moment. this was part of their lives to we just dump it all on the scrap heap of history as if they hadn't lived at all and looked at and it would be very cruel towards our parents. so that is at least one reason she wanted to go back. not the color for probably going to lou, still your voicemail. the one issue that said you were talking about is were check not. not available, jessie with doors she partial 45 years ago. still. oh, does it? well you must have gotten if you did this all can strike under the supervision of

the film director. nikita mccullough cough and his father. so gay, who wrote the lyrics, but to soviet anthem's is working hard to record new versions of the former soviet and present russian anthem's words again by macau cough senior. with short neglect. fortunately with ah, ah, [000:00:00;00]

with motivation package portion that i've been show you from that i believe she may have more just projects done with a. so we go to the adventure level.

ah.

ah. yes, uh huh. now we got the ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha lora, we got out of zoom. 30. did you that you were with them? you an unexpected morning calling from the kremlin, brought me back to the president's office. when he moved. hello, you again with a silly camera, be careful. the camera is also good. substitute william,

i wanted to have a heart to heart talk should though, strictly speaking, how good it is, but i thought i could take the liberty of talking about it. it was to leave, i do not know what your goals are in this way, and i won't interfere in the creative process. it's a new things as you see fit in. i'm not trying to impose anything on you had to switch. i just want to state my point of view and you can decide whether you use it or not. it is good. so about our conversation about the anecdotal even the sham given rules. so remember that exam the easiest naep. why haven't returned to the old melody by alexander he casually. unfortunately, many people don't understand his stern statement and it's strange that there is such a misunderstanding as will go. she was lou ago, lily me, i do not know if i managed to convey this yesterday and what was more or less a formal conversation that emulated sure to or no. so they're double nittany, lucidly showed that he might have, let's say, the restoration of the angela way, the soviet melody, and gives additional bonuses to someone involved in politics,

in respect of increased ratings or public confidence. wishing indeed, and this is necessary in order to achieve anything that i wish the but you must be able to rely on the population i trusted in the city. of course, you can always argue about the ways to make that happen and choose the best option to many women. what happens if there is a dispute with the authorities with a president, which improves it very simple. there are instruments of democracy. a lot of people have signed a petition against the anthem, like a conscience of the nation, so to speak. with this conscience does not feel from the tragedy that the people are going through doing dr. ged good. what he did is, you know, it was signed by people who did fail it and who voted for you. when i did, i showed you understand, well, whenever i had to make certain decisions, he dumped bootable. some people got the list, including the ones who voted for me, will always say that they are wrong. so i believe i have to explain my motives to every one. simply every want him upset, then act as i deem necessary. matthews will begin. illusion

d stood deck of shadow newsome, this women so you're not afraid you will lose some of that trust by taking tough decisions level some would they be established it elena benny. i think it's obvious that the decision should be taken in the interests of the state when you months, regardless of whether they provoke a positive or a negative reactions. the way that the pl as we can do you have to understand that what is nika celia? you can agree or disagree. bless you, stealing some of what you really must understand that. yeah. if you really think about it. yeah, absolutely. i'm saying that you're already wavering me at the you know, i'm not, you want me to say that i'm way varela. my was, this is a, can you both know, but this is a matter that could have been put on hold for now like the issue with lenin in the more slim jessica but rosaleen in missouri, washington, the issue of the labor code could also been put on her good a vehicle of no, he couldn't have needed. yeah. elin,

imaginable in that is your opinion through gave others think that land reform could have been put off a little bit. they said that there was no need to introduce a new land co, emergent when people like that exist to even do you think they are less important than those that do not want to have the old anthem back within with your commentary . cham give the 20 for journalism. i think politics is the art of the possible, the art of possible compromises isn't it? well, it, unless it is, although that's a nice phrase that you can use whenever, whenever you need to fill a pause state, a little nipples movie said it was a compromise. and only with me, yes, to a certain extent. it is a compromise again. but it still though it certainly looks like a compromise. it really did, could compress the state of the season, sep convenience, but it still gets mostly used. nevertheless, this, during these are meaningful actions to achieve a position which you can rely on to solve sub tasks in the reconstruction of the

state. a good in the modernization of the economy that you will reconstruct incident woman. that means that secondly, see, i can't disagree with that argument isn't with what you see. we're already moving closer because it's see him on, but only with this argument. notice because our positions are moving closer, i regret it, and yet you say people can't be persuaded. i don't know why putin needed to convince me his decision was right when it was already impossible to restore the anthem. wasn't there any one left to disagree with him? are you concerned? you haven't persuaded every one of the correctness of this decision and it was not that you cannot persuade every one. unfortunately, it's impossible. no, no, as 140000000 people couldn't. you can't discuss things with everyone in person. yeah. okay. although i think i'd be able to, if i could, it was more because you only, it's not possible even. i'm sitting in jo. well, usually no offense,

but i still don't share your opinion about the anthem. pity there. on the 31st of december, 2000. exactly a year had passed since the resignation of boris yeltsin and the appointment of vladimir putin as his successor. ah, oh hm. mm hm. though with what would you be with us here? yeah. he oh, i get your oh yeah. oh, yes, to proceed. oh, she thought i didn't look back on your knees, poor little port where you know,

gimme a said he would get it when you pull that you go see but the would you have a. busy visit you needed for the dental dental and vision plan, but he only shan with a no show such im dogwood story. i hey booting got his c legs quickly enough and increasingly distanced himself from his mentor

with both during the year off to his resignation. boris yeltsin rediscovered the original meaning of the word family. just 3 minutes to midnight. thanks to the outgoing. yes. the question. feeling a little, what do you mean? by the way, this is the 1st year that has been more or less peaceful. there's none of the yearning of the previous 10 years feeling of thank god, it's over here. their relatives develop to france. so again, renee this year, bringing out the old year and bringing in the new no show. i'm sure all that for this contra lord, the upcoming year will be better than the old one. 0, it will be better if jimmy amelia and yet were ringing in the shade or rather

bringing out the old ear with a certain sense of loss. so bobby, new, yeah, well, are says long him. oh, so a home, a note with with, with, with, with, with, and you did a restore the anthem without your knowledge,

even the new lyrics couldn't save it more with crush. it's reddish. oh, i found this word reddish, which embodied all the bitterness of this re animation of the soviet past. also became a valedictory sign for me. yeltsin died in the 7th year of vladimir putin presidency thing. does the president have to say over a lot of things? let's just throw him norgard. certainly the head of state has a say over many things. so certain functions of the president are laid down by the law and interest and like they are very comprehensive and presidential powers may become the determining factors, performing these functions correctly. at your private levels, vanya as a rule, if we did as far as things i haven't planning, are concerned i own, i basically manage to meet the goals i've set for myself on global level is

debilitating silicon to visit with miss. what is your attitude towards the all embracing unity of the nation under the guidance of the wise visionary and just leave vladimir putin? i didn't lead you should just have to where i sense a slight irony in your question. for for 3rd, it was already be everything we used to call extreme in this and margaret and certainly doesn't help but rather harms. more used to buy meeting is all the but for shit, monuments and other elements of autocracy leftover from the past on can naturally as every one like that they are very difficult to counter them over that other. not that we can talk about, shall we go with them. i admit, despite the fact that this was only the 1st year of putin's rule, all my questions were already raising issues of succession of power,

imperial ambitions and autocracy. although there was no obvious reason for this. and if you listened and believed was put in said, then you should have had no reason whatsoever to worry about russia's future. which is much of a bit getting out of the car and buying a mug of beer as quite difficult as you can probably guess because you're always on the moon. lot of people around you with. so if there is a problem with the traffic, just if i get out of the car and start drinking beer, thousands, we'll wait for the motorcade to pass it. nothing good will come of it. the shoe julie stood no sound which is that, but he's the kind of different branch out of this is just the simplest example that some of us put everything is like though that question. so what would you like that splendid, easier or wishing that you? yes. if i would in here, i do believe that the day will come when i'll be able to return to a normal life on my end. if i do believe that some day i'll have a future as

a private citizen with that i'll be engaged in some other activity and will live the life of a normal person. exactly not a minute. well, these are wonderful words. a foster sat, an optimism handling of the music was much of the da says no, i don't a sense of the irony and what you say though, of you, it's true and i'll tell you why you all to little bit you. as it's, it's very important at that says, go with this by the way, as we're returning to your question about whether it wouldn't be better to step into the shoes of a modern or citizenship of him on a good or 1st of all, human as the life of modern is quite complicated chills i have met monarchs quite often in recent years in various parts of the world during official visit steps to be at the property extended, receive them. and i can say that their fate does not inspire me at all. hm. yeah. at least i would not like to experience anything like that. that little book of that it used to buy them. but almost as it's just their life isn't harsh and full of restrictions. nudin but jesse

b yet though they don't belong to themselves. it was on the same day with that's their destiny, with those, with the vision, and it's forever, he's been alone with in this respect and elected had of state has a better lie. although since it gives you a chance to prove yourself in the greatest lead way, you'd see there in service to the motherland with a maximum effort max was deserted, minnesota. but at the same time, nobody gives you an opportunity to live a normal life after you reformed your official duties. after the abdomen term, then the women laid you don't need to. you are constantly being reminded that your turn will end one day. you have your listener, which is normal mileage luca in understood and you will so the 1st of all have to live a life of a normal person. and as they used to say in a way you aren't ashamed of. well, i was wanted know so so that you can address people openly in your new position

without averting your gay and so he doesn't he but don't ye shall. so and one more thing is very important, luna. it is necessary to understand that you will live as a normal citizen in that in a few years time, often you'll be confronted with everything you do with the state to in the society now was an ordinary said a so group that she didn't. yes. escalate. i stated that will get us than you. it's a venture lou city of mister wall. it's a good thing to remember that before taking any decision, rather than yielding to monarchical and to show us what are the heaps members, anybody addition, bushnell lapse? i'll put a camera down inside his office screen the leash used to will. if you do exactly as you are saying, you will do now. it will become a pledge of worthy future for both the country and you personally, there was leech that more young go ahead of still discuss when we have to look at it. right. you know, but as i'm telling you, so i've sat and thought with the rack, my brains about how it should be there,

steve bowden. waiter. think about how your children reload feature toys, how the children of your friends and relatives will live, and how you will lose it. it's got what kind of country it will be. to city of lou vickery. this is a serious issue. most probably the source of all the advantages of democracy applies to some lady iona. so that's one of the reasons why thomas seeks at democracies are more resilient. you close active most don't just need bye. you margaret, you. democrats. even though it is a special to people will doesn't have no idea what to say now. so let's keep our fingers crossed and thumbs up. when you, when i'm going to get a hold again,

this is in the other you didn't hear them. ah putin still rules russia lot has happened over the years. he's been in power. the end of the war in chechnya and the beginning of the chechen was in moscow, the olympics and doping scandals, the crimea and the war in ukraine. and to growing confidence and getting kicked out of the g 8. moreover, there was emigration, imprisonments, and the deaths of those who tried to speak out against putin. and there was also the price i had to pay for naively, assuming i was just a witness. life has proven the tacit consent,

tons witnesses into accomplishes so we all voluntarily became hostages of the very person who was leading us towards a glorious future that ultimately came to echo the dog passed. ah ah ah . the black sand behind them dw news africa, the show that the issues have been the continent. life is slowly getting back to normal. yeah. yeah. well, the street,
