Untitled Story

Storyline: A look at the Russian people. They come from various ethnic groups and only 8 million of the country's 215 million people are members of the communist party. Many actually hate communism. Their leaders have promised them a happier life ever since 1917, but for the most part continue to live in fear and misery. Instead of a classless society, the elite members and scientists live the good life, while the peasants struggle. They are not allowed to travel within their own country, or change jobs. Those who attend the few churches still open are closely watched by secret police.
