Six episodes to retrace the decisive period in history, which was from 1945 to 1991, the confrontation between
two worlds, between two systems. The capitalist West, dominated by the United States, opposed to the Soviet Empire
in the east. Both camps have the ultimate weapon: the Bomb. This monstrous balance of terror paradoxically ensures
half a century of peace and prosperity in the West. A documentary from more than 200 hours of unpublished archives!

BONUS............: "e;Le Transsibérien"e; by Daniel Costelle (unpublished version, 55 minutes, French audio, no subs)
Synopsis.........: Summer 1945. Leaving the atrocities of war behind, the Allies wholeheartedly celebrate a return to peace.
But behind the scenes of global reconstruction, a more drawn-out, insidious confrontation is in the making.
Soon, an "e;iron curtain"e; will come down, dividing the Communist Eastern bloc, dominated by the Soviet Union,
and the West, behind the United States. This is the Cold War, the War of Worlds. In a frantic arms race,
the United States have invented the worst threat possible - the nuclear bomb. During the course of fifty
years, the great heads of state, Stalin, Khrushchev, Mao, and Kennedy, face each other off in a precarious
balance of terror.
In Indochina, Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan, they wage war on each other through other peoples.
Nonetheless, it is still the same war between East and West. The same leaders, the same terrified civilians,
the same regions destroyed by bombs, the same rows of starving prisoners... Beyond those who are in power,
all of mankind can, at any time, be plunged into the Apocalypse.
BONUS' Synopsis..: In 1978 Daniel Costelle, co-director of Apocalypse, has a contract with Pathe.
He was directing a six-episode documentary series for TF1, entitled Histoire des trains (History of trains).
One of these episodes focuses on the convoy traveling the Trans-Siberian Railway, a network of railroads
that connects Moscow to Vladivostok for more than 9000 kilometers. This train is also used to transport
prisoners of the Soviet regime in the gulags.
Daniel Costelle had an idea: take advantage of the documentary to tell the truth about these camps.
He calls six former detainees to testify, facing the camera. TF1 will never broadcast this report.
