I hereby inform you that on February 17, 1959

I saw that the sky was a milky white blur,

consists of a string of concentric circles.

if you come across something like this or, it turns out,,

that this is due to the death of the group, the information is three zeros.

Kostin, are you crazy?

The mystery will not be solved in the office. I'll spend the night in a tent.,

in the place where they slept.

The DYATLOV PASS

march 8, 1959

archive of the prosecutor 's office in the sverdlovsk region

We checked the slope several times, all the way from the stream to the Lozva River.

We work with probes with a length of 1.5 m.

Each seeker does 10,000 hits a day.

Nothing yet.

What do you say?

well, our unanimous opinion is that we won't find any other bodies now.,

we have to wait until the snow melts.

we suggest postponing the search until the end of april.

So you came here with this? We have four undiscovered bodies.

Do you want to stop searching? - not to stop, but to postpone.

What do we tell their parents?

That we'll find their children later. When the snow melts?

the volunteers are exhausted, that's understandable,

but the search must not be stopped.

Replace people and increase the drilling depth.

the snow there is really very deep.

This is my personal opinion.

Undoubtedly, the decision he will take Comrade Ivanov.

Could you come over?"

Make a list of the crawlers that should be replaced first.

Vasily, I'm going back to Moscow.

There's special forces for you. i hope you understand what this means.

oleg, you insult me.

i took this photo when i spent the night on the pass.

This was done on February 17 from a member of the search team.

While I'm gone, ask the locals. had they ever seen anything like it?

Oleg...

do you think it's possible?..

... anything alien?"

While I don't think anything, I recommend that you take your time with the versions.

Just ask people and send it to me. protocols in person in Moscow.

That's right. - Come on!

May 1, 1959, Moscow "Thank you."

comrade, do you have a light?

What an instance! German!

I also had one., I lost an argument with a friend.

I took it from a dead Kraut.

i don't think so. Fair exchange, I took their lighter,

and they are my legs to the knee.

Sevastopol is worth it.

how do you know it happened in sevastopol? this is the first time i've seen you.

Look how sharp his eye is! What are you, crazy?

happy holiday, comrade.

catherine! - hello, oleg.

Good afternoon.

Hello, Nikolai. - Hello, Oleg Dmitrievich.

how did you get there? - Boring.

We wanted to see Moscow as soon as possible. "Is this your first time here?"

yes, i come to the second one myself. I was like a girl before the war.

What do you want to see most, Kolya? "I don't know.

planetarium.

Understood, Nikolai.

oleg dmitrievich, is this your car? - this is work, kolya.

Sorry.

They didn't give you a uniform to pick up girls.

not at all, guilty. "open the car!"

I'm sorry.

You have a minute to write down her number. "what?"

40 seconds left. Come on! - listen. Thank you, Comrade Major.

Come in, welcome!

Be bold! Go Ahead, Nick.

Make yourself at home.

I've got everything ready. Katya, you'll settle in here.

Towels and clean sheets are in the closet.

Kolya, I've prepared it for you. the sofa is here.

Breakfast-there are products in the refrigerator, use them.

what else? i think that's all.

Oleg...

Kolya, take the suitcase. and deal with it.

Are we bothering you?" And you? "We have a great officers' dormitory.

You don't bother me at all. "Thank you."

Thank you for all this.

And for inviting us. it's good to see you.

To be honest, I thought I'd see you in Ivdel.

I thought I'd be called, but.....

Then I remembered what I had promised Kolya. show him Moscow and call you.

I'm glad you called.

Kolya was very happy.

I'm glad, too. Everyone, get some sleep until tomorrow.

Kolya, the stars are tomorrow. "Hooray!

What stars? Planetarium, I promised.

Keys.

Oleg! Sorry! Just a second, now.

tempalov asked me to tell you personally. and don't tell anyone.

Thanks.

What's it? - photos i took,

when I spent the night on the pass., where the tourists died.

I gave Tempalova job to ask. has anyone seen anything like this?

This is an interrogation report. local residents.

12 people describe the same thing in their own words.

Glowing circles in the sky.

Does this Tempalov know how to guard them? similar information?

My protocol was delivered in a sealed envelope through a trusted person.

Comrade Lieutenant-General, I understand. that I meddle in other people's affairs...

I remember three zeros. but if these circles

they led to the death of tourists... - It will not kill them.

all the rescuers i interviewed, the tourists kept repeating the same thing.

to leave the tent in the middle of the night, the only warm place in the cold...

only a death threat would make them do something like this,

or influence on some kind of radiation, gas.

It's impossible.

Dmitry Andreevich, I understand everything.

understand me, too.

if the country orders me, i'll cover it.

But I need to know.

These are R-7 ballistic missiles.

Our new development. "Rockets?"

Why didn't you say there was a landfill nearby?

Because there is no. It's very far away.

More than 1,700 kilometers.

That's out of the question. whatever impact that might have.

1,700 kilometers?

It can't be! in germany i saw as the German Faa fly, we were close.

these aren't your stupid german eggs.

this is an intercontinental rocket for transporting hydrogen bombs

on the territory...

... on another continent. We thought the night would hide the launch.

It turned out quite the opposite, so ... ..

This is the start time to the nearest second

for the period February-April. Compare it with the testimony of witnesses.

February 17, 6: 40.< / i>

That's what they saw later.

and that's what i saw.

You say no one saw it. are these documents?

I didn't see them either.

Forget what you heard as soon as you leave the office.

It works! - listen.

Vasily Ivanovich! - yes?

An urgent radiogram from Tarlykova.

Did they find the bodies? "You'd better see for yourself.

cotton sports pants and remnants of a women's sweater

probably on Dubinin.

I had to extend the probes from three meters,< / I>

to find them at this depth.

what are branches for? Were they going to start a fire?

No, it's the sidewalk.

We had several of them. This is for four people.

and where are they? "i don't want to get people's hopes up.,

but i think they're gone. "They're gone?" sammy?

It looks like it.

But where?

they knew it wouldn't happen. to the nearest settlement.

we didn't find them near the tent. and a supply shed.

turns out it's them...

like it's them...

What?

Finish it!

Turns out they took them.

Did they take them?

Who took them?

Who were they running from? when they left the tent?

Vasily Ivanovich, I think I've found something.

Kolya, let's go get some ice cream!

There's a queue, go take the queue.

Oleg, thank you very much. He showed us so much.

I'm sorry, we're taking up a lot of your time.

That's why I invited you to the party. Even the KGB must have a day off.

Then let's go to the mausoleum?

don't you have enough corpses at work? - oleg!

Not to be trifled with. Comrade Lenin had a good sense of humor.

Really? how do you know?"

I was told by old chekists. looks like something happened.

i said you should bother me as a last resort. "so it is, comrade major.

i keep thinking i should have taken kolya. "you too."

with the big dawn, i received this invitation. for the air parade through the general.

in place of kolya was not if i was taken away.

it's not going to be easy for your mom. "With pleasure."

dad's dead, she's retired. he'll have something to do.

she loves children. kolya will be like a grandson to her.

What was your son's name?

i'm sorry, i shouldn't have asked. - andrew.

my wife's name was vera.

Easier? or is it like the first day?

You know what?, The first day I went to hang myself.

So the difference is obvious.

It's still hard.

In 1945, we lived in Arkhangelsk.

And how...

... the news of his death was brought to me...

... I went out into the street.

As gamawa.

My head is spinning.

And simple...

I fell into the snow and lay there.

Simply so.

I wanted to...

... this cold...

... penetrate me...

... and freeze all my pain.

It's like he broke into me.

As if...

... she froze Me.

it doesn't go away.

Oleg...

it doesn't go away.

My children! They didn't do anything wrong!

Why were they killed?!

Take the kids! "It's not their fault!

Two 10-year-old Fritz boys shot them as they retreated.

She says they wanted to take them to the Hitler Youth. They refused.

I understood. get rid of her.

28 April 1945 Berlin

go! Go, I tell you! Stay here!

Comrade Captain, look what I found.

Move it! Come on, come on, come on!

I'm not a member of the SS.

We were given the form a week ago.

What does he say? Isn't that his uniform? - A week ago, it was distributed to everyone

and forced them to join the SS. "He didn't take it.

Wait, Oleg! Wait!

look at his glasses - he can't see from a meter anymore, what kind of soldier is he?

And Himmler is wearing glasses. "come on!

You know, if you'd refused, he was going to follow his kids.

therefore, the soviet authorities do not look for their accounts. Stand back!

Let's at least check it out. whether he has a tattoo.

Okay, check it out.

Take off your shirt!

Take off your shirt! Faster!

i've only had it for two days! - there is.

it's fresh.

No! Please! Else! "paul!

paul!

oh, no! No!

Back up! - Oh, my God!

Oleg!

Oleg! Comrade Captain!

Don't!

the bodies were taken for autopsy. This deals with the expert Semanova.

But I shot everything-Kolevatov, Zolotarov and Thibaut-Brignol

they lay a little higher. Below, on the bulge, was Dubinin's people.

So they were right in the stream.

How did this happen?

maybe it was iced over. and they didn't know there was a stream.

Or maybe the ice was thin. and they failed.

Someone wants to help them, but ... ..

... it was late.

so you found everyone. "yes, every one of them.,

but everything became even clearer. did you look through the documents?,

What did I send you? "They had nothing to do with it.

are you sure?"

I personally interviewed people. "What do you think, Vasily?",

am i a fool? "not at all.

Am I a liar?, can I lie to a friend?

i'll bet you don't.

I give you my word of honor that it couldn't have killed them.

i've seen the evidence. i can't say any more.

and for that, i'm grateful. then i don't understand anything.

What's in there?

Damn it! What's it?

Here you go, Tempalov.

This is bad! - about 4 meters to the fallen shell casing.

We have to draw a radius. and look for the firing point.

I'm not sure we'll find anything, but we have to look.

based on the study of the corpse on Zolotareva, 37 years old,

I believe that his death was caused by

multiple rib fractures on the right side,

accompanied by internal hemorrhage in the pleural cavity.

aforementioned rib fractures, as well as internal bleeding

in the pleural cavity, were obtained during life and were as a result of

use of high power in the chest area.

The death of a citizen Zolotarev...

... she's cruel.

Here he is.

Who was he shooting at?

didn't you think of a question? " who fired the shot?"

Whose gun is this? "i have a guess.

s. a. z .-semyon alekseevich zolotaryov.

Where did he get such a prize? From the war?

What matters is who he shot.

If the gun was here, and the shell casing was there.,

so that's where he shot. "Maybe we should look for a bullet in the trees."

Search, yes. There may be traces of blood.

i'll take the gun. don't describe it in the report,

don't attach it to the case. I'm going to Ivdel to check something.

your health!

Is the store empty? - Yes. As if they were escaping.

Zolotarov shot., and then they fell into the stream.

Did He shoot the beast?

On a winter's night in February? "A monster.

They're Asleep. - There are waking bears, this has happened.

they Could have entered the lair. "there was nothing of the sort.

this is due to care in the tent.

let's leave the animals. who else could he have shot?

we've already dealt with the poachers.

If they put the jailers away. from the camp in ivdel,

Flying Hunting party she doesn't swim.

"Flying squad"? - there is such A Unit in The camp.

If there is an escape, they send them on their heels. a squad of ex-Marines.

They'll find them? And then shoot them on the spot.

Does the district attorney know about this?

This is not according to Soviet laws.

this is our unit, the kgb. We don't trumpet left and right for this.

we write everything as we resisted.

so you want to tell me what's out there in the woods,

do armed groups of shooters with special training and equipment?

Comrade Major, I thought you understood. You're one of our own, aren't you?"

I didn't guard the camps. "They only come out if there's an escape.

what kind of fool is going to run away in this cold?

oleg dmitrievich, don't be angry. You will make sure that this is a wind job.

Why would they kill tourists? "They were mixed up in the dark.

There are no WOUNDS on their bodies.

In the first five, we don't know about these yet.

Is Katya there yet? - Katya?

Expert Semanova. "Oh, yes.

he has work to do for a few more days. with these autopsies.

When I called, I told her to tell her we were coming.

How did you spend your time in Moscow?

What does it mean?

Guilty.

labor and correctional camp, Ivdel city

Bon appetit.

oh, no! I was hoping you wouldn't see it.

Yes, you might think that Okunev was here.

Sorry. Eat!

It's because of the formalin.

The smell of it gives me a ferocious appetite.

Besides, I haven't eaten all day.

Okay, I ate two soups., That's the main thing.

That is, the second main one, the first one I have already cleaned out.

Don't look at me! "i'm sorry.

I've noticed that people are very real when you eat.

I won't ask you about desk work.

No problem., Between autopsies, I have breakfast and lunch.

we have a find.

But if you didn't find anything unusual ... that doesn't mean anything.

i'm afraid there's something unusual.

internal bleeding in the pleural cavity the cavity occurred during life,

as he fell, he was pinned down, or pushed.

death of citizen Zolotarev she's cruel.

show me!"

are you sure?" they were in the water for a long time.

they are not like the first five bodies. "Come on, I need to see this."

Whatever you say.

Who is it? - lyudmila dubinina.

She's ... - No eyeballs and no tongue.

What is the reason? "We've started.

to thaw under running water

both eyes and tongue. they were just washed.

This is understandable. something else is strange.

What? - kolevatov, like the others,

opened in february, died of frostbite,

and the other three - from a serious injury with a violent temper.

Rib Fractures, traumatic brain injuries, Internal bleeding,

injuries of internal organs.

Are there any gunshot and knife wounds?

No, why do you ask?

Maybe you didn't find it. - oleg!

I get it, thanks. Sorry.

okay, maybe it was an animal, like a bear, what do you think?

This can happen when you hit with your paw. but i've had cases with victims.,

they were attacked by a bear. Does not pass without traces of claws and teeth.

What does it look like?

What can they live with? such injuries?

so break the bones, break the skull...

it must have been a very strong blow., it was struck by a big man and a big man.

And he did it. with some kind of baton, cole.

Let's just say that...

... with the butt on the machine?

It is possible, of course.

That is...

... you think so...

Understood. Anyway, you won't tell me.

There's nothing to tell.

katie...

Thank you.

Listen, Sasha, things are going badly.

three students had serious injuries, broken ribs, broken head,

they are very similar to a butt punch. "damn it!

so if it has something to do with the flying squad...

This means execution. "of course.

No one will admit it. Sasha, watch out for each reaction.,

every word they say. - listen.

I wish you good health, comrades! - i wish you good health!

comrade colonel, did the assistant tell you why we are here?

Yes, he did. Here are two commanders. flying squads.

Captains Akhromeev... Yes.

... and Buligin.

Fellow officers, I am investigating the death of a group of tourists.

in the area of the otorten mountains. can your groups be there

at the end of january? "not at all.

no.

were there any escapes from the camp?

It was autumn. Who's crazy to run in the winter?

in accordance with major kostin's authority, i was given the responsibility of the camp.

Your credentials are impressive. they even aggravate our attention.

Is it that serious? "I was ordered to, and I'm doing it.

At the end of January , three prisoners died on the same day.

if it's written that way, it's true.

the conditions here are tough, everything is happening.

for the old and sick, this is clear, but these are young recidivists.

do you bury prisoners?

If relatives ask for a body, yes, we give it to them.

If not, he goes to the crematorium. "And something else happened.

Your employee, a member of one of the flying squads, was killed.

in whose squad? - mine.

How did this happen? "By carelessness.

he was cleaning his gun , and there was a cartridge left in the barrel.

It was the gun "TT"? - Of course.

We all have these - service ones.

Did you keep the shell casing? - No, for what?

it was an accident.

Comrade Colonel, we need them. your written statement for the report.

With your permission we'll interview the witnesses separately.

Okunev will interrogate the captain Bulygin., I am captain Akhromeev.

Please provide us with separate rooms.

Give me the key, Gusko. I'll pay you back later.

You're Free To Go.

Volodka! - oleg!

29 April 1945 Langer see Lake "Where are you going?"

He'd blow your head off, you idiot!

Who are you? How did you get here? - Petty Officer Akhromeev,

141 rifle regiment. The Germans are retreating in Switzerland,

our troops are being transferred. We're scouting.

This place is being shelled. What are you scouting? We're scouting.

look, there are two mg-42 points on the lighthouse.

They may have a Panzerfaust. If our infantry leaves, they'll cut them up.

We have to destroy this nest., There is no one else.

pull out your checkers, vitya! three remain here.

they'll open fire for cover.

you and i will make our way through the reeds.

What? Oleg, I'll go with you!

No, you're staying here to cover for us. - oleg!

Your wife is pregnant. do it, sergeant, it's an order.

Listen. "follow me!"

get down, scout!

Fire!

we clean them up at the bottom., then i go up, you cover me.

Understood.

A grenade!

Well, what?..

Let's get acquainted. Vladimir. - Oleg.

Let's make a springboard blind about dating?

Let's.

Come on.

An apple? - Yes.

An apple, Comrade Captain?!

You usually carry a gun in this pocket. "Usually, yes.

but today it's an apple.

to top it all off, she's bitten. sorry, i ate.

look what i've got. remember her?

Still working!

it's crazy! The Germans know how to make things.

It's yours, if you'll help me understand. What's going on here, my friend?

You've got your bearings right.

The three prisoners who are taking them. dead, escaped from the camp.

From the sawmill. They raised both groups.

there was a snowstorm, the tracks were noticeable. It was unclear where to go.

My went to the side Ivdellag., Buligin in Otorten.

We came back empty-handed, Buligin with a corpse.

They didn't say what happened.

They wrote it as " gun accident."

was he shot by a tt? " the doctor said yes.

The boss called the whole team together. and he ordered us to be silent.

We don't want any trouble. he's not to be trifled with.

what happened, oleg?

tell me, this other one, buligin...

do you know him well?"

i wish i didn't know him.

during the war, he commanded a criminal battalion.

he redeemed himself with blood. and the remaining officer.

he's not married, he only has a mother.

do you know why he's here?

because he likes it.

he likes to kill.

he likes to hunt people. he's just waiting for someone to escape.

Wait, Oleg! You have in mind the students were killed

by buligin's hand? - I have to tell Okunev yes...

... be careful with him.

Comrade Captain, should I sound the alarm? "No, no.

Hang up, no alarm. This is a service accident.

You're Free To Go. "Then we were right.

what are you talking about? "There was an escape. The chief covered for him.

The fighter was killed... "Where's Buligin?"

He was behind me.

Did you let him go?" "What were we supposed to do?"

He said that he had doubts about the escape., He had to check.

Where did he go? - to the taiga.

Was he armed?" - Yes.

What? After him in the middle of the night? "Don't, Oleg Dmitrievich.

He knows taiga, he's armed. This is not a prisoner's escape.

Nothing, and my old fighting buddy and I are not yesterday's.

Right? - oleg!

if you leave my children orphaned and i get you out of this world.

To raise an army.
