In the Kremlin, no one can hear you scheme
When dictator Joseph Stalin dies, his parasitic cronies square off in a frantic power struggle to become the next Soviet leader. As they bumble, brawl and back-stab their way to the top, the question remains — just who is running the government?
German (Deutsch)
Im März 1953 steht die Sowjetunion vor einem alles verändernden Ereignis, da Josef Stalin nach einem Schlaganfall im Sterben liegt. Sobald Stalins Tod eingetreten ist, wird seine Position als Generalsekretär der KPdSU frei und noch während der Diktator mit dem Tod ringt, bringen sich hinter den Kulissen seine Gefolgsleute in Stellung, darunter Nikita Chruschtschow, der Sekretär des Zentralkomitees der KPdSU, Geheimdienstchef Lawrenti Beria, Stalins Stellvertreter Georgi Malenkow und Außenminister Wjatscheslaw Molotow. Schnell versinkt das Regime und die gesamte Sowjetunion in einem unüberschaubaren Chaos, weil sich die Politiker um die Parteispitze balgen und sich auch noch Stalins Kinder Swetlana und Wassili einmischen...

- a.k.a. Morto Stalin, se ne fa un altro
Nella notte del 2 marzo 1953, c'è un uomo che sta morendo. Non si tratta di un uomo qualunque: è un tiranno, un sadico, un dittatore. È Joseph Stalin, il Segretario Generale dell'Unione Sovietica (che forse in questo momento si sta pentendo di aver fatto rinchiudere nei Gulag tutti i medici più capaci…). È li lì, non ne avrà ancora per molto, sta per tirare le cuoia… e se ti giochi bene le tue carte, il suo successore potresti essere tu!
