Description
A hundred years of oppression, seen through the eyes of Latvians - first as the oppressors, then as the oppressed. After WWII and the Cold War, Latvia experienced fifty years of Soviet domination. The KGB's methods are laid bare in true stories of interrogation, torture, execution and deportation to Siberia: this is not for the squeamish.
