Synopsis
A childhood friend of Sergei Eisenstein, Maxime Stransky is an actor in 1920s Moscow and an adventurer of the revolution, a counterfeiter, a Hollywood producer and… Stalin’s film editor. Maxime reveals his missions as Stalin’s actor-spy: his involvement in the Great Crash of 1929, his betrayal of Eisenstein, his two families -- Russian and American -- the Spanish Civil War, WW II, his epic flight from the FBI across the North Pole, his rise as a socialist hero, his sudden deportation to the Kolyma Gulag in 1952 and his disappearance... Fact or fiction?
