00:00Stalin knew one thing, force.
00:03During his reign, 20 million people lost their lives.
00:08Even then, he would write in the margins,
00:11not enough.
00:13Hey, Professor!
00:14You think you know all about Comrade Stalin?
00:18I want someone to hear the truth.
00:22Here in the northern tundra of Russia,
00:25a story is unfolding which will shake the world.
00:28So, Stalin's notebook.
00:30Who told you about this?
00:32An eyewitness?
00:33From that time?
00:35One sniff of a scoop and you make the paparazzi look like a bunch of choirboys.
00:39There was a note from my father.
00:40It says that there is something valuable,
00:42and you can tell me what it is.
00:44In a toolbox.
00:45Well, it's not Stalin's writing.
00:47It's the writing of a young girl.
00:50Why would he keep her diary?
00:51He was looking for the perfect mother for his child.
00:54Your father died because he wouldn't tell him where it was,
00:57because he wanted you to have it.
00:59If you stay in Moscow, they'll find you and they'll kill you.
01:03You've got a madman on the loose
01:05who may be suffering from a major congenital defect.
01:08You think you can control him?
01:10If he's his father's son, which I truly believe he is,
01:12you could be one of his first victims.
01:15That man's father was responsible for more deaths than Adolf Hitler,
01:18Pol Pot and Genghis Khan combined.
01:2030 million Russians think that man's dad did a good job.
01:36We always believe what we want to believe.
01:41For me, history is death.
01:43It tells us what happened, not what happens next.
01:46That is what I carry on.
01:50HISTORY TELLS US WHAT HAPPENED
