The Nazi invasion of Russia is a total shock to Stalin. He realises that western Russia will quickly fall, and he will lose his massive war factories. The Communists now force ordinary Russians to carry out a spectacular and bloody miracle. One and half thousand factories are dismantled and carried east, on one and half million railway trucks. 17 million factory workers are forced to go with them. In the Urals, a new tank factory is built – the Uralvagonzavod, or Ural Tank Factory No. 183. It was, and is, the biggest in the world. It is often said that it was Stalin’s Russia, rather than the West, that really won the war. This film shows how wrong that idea is. It’s true that Russia built lots of tanks, but the U.S. and Britain together built more. And in everything else, from steel and fuel to boots and food, the Western allies massively outproduced Russia. Many of Stalin’s tank factories had been designed and built by mass production experts from Detroit. By the end of the war, of the Red Army’s 665,000 vehicles, 427,000 were American built. What’s more, behind Soviet war production, is a story of famine, torture, slave labour and terror. Overseeing work is the dreaded NKVD (the forerunner of the KGB). There are over half a million NKVD operatives, and during the war they will kill more of their own citizens than all the British soldiers lost in WW2.
