Historic Soviet Union History Film: Brezhnev

This film is a documentary of the life of Soviet premier Leonid Brezhnev, narrated in Spanish. Even if you dont understand Spanish, this film is valuable, if a bit confusing, for the many varied images of Russia from the turn of the century until the 1970s. There is footage of many world leaders, including Juri Gagarin, Erich Honecker, Nicolai Ceausescu, Castro, Harold Wilson, Urho Kekkonen, Gerald Ford, and others. Scenes from heavy industry, WWII, China, France, and Cuba are shown. There is, interestingly, no mention of Stalin or Khrushchev.
