    Very good documentary ! 5 stars. Although makes me wonder what in the world made them dissolve the union? To buy jeans and shiny toys from west? Abandon free housing, free medical, dirt cheap transport, rent, food, but hey, I now got Levis ! I think the people voted overwhelmingly to be in the union (I read around 80% from all republics except the baltics). So it was just some corrupt politicians like yeltsin and his ukrainian counterpart at the time who wanted to loot their republics by dissolving the union.

    I was in kindergarten in 1989. We were told Japan was 10 years in the future. I realized in 2018 that people had at least one picture of Shibuya Crossing when they said it. Now I wonder if that is as honest as selling travel to the USA by showing the Las Vegas strip and Times Square. I got interested in seeing Japan back then. My mom had a 1985 Nissan Maxima and I loved it. A combination of Knight Rider, Tron, and giant mecha is how it was made. It made me want the Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (Z32 Fairlady TT) when it went on sale. To 1980s kids, turbo power sounded like magic. Twin turbo sounded like even more magic to me.

    Well for me who never lived under apartheid government I often ask my elders who were in those so called opressedpuppet states they usually tell me that they would give anything to return to the good old days were jobs were available with no crime and rampant drug and alcohol abuse. 30 plus years of communist rule has ruin this country you can not tell me otherwise that the the current state of affairs are normal in south africa. Yeah surerly there was segregation along the racial and tribal lines and as were speaking I say that was best thing for all the cultures in south africa, what has mixing a complished a mongrels who are xhosa but speak Afrikaans vice-versa with no cultural identity. What a mess just melting pot of soup one conflict away from a civil war due to racial and class envy

    This is 1992 earliest. The central park tower is fully built here, and construction on that building wasn't completed until May of that year. So my best guess is that this footage is from 1993/1994

    The jumping ball of brown cotton at the beginning of the film is a nice touch. It serves as a reminder that there are so many feeble-minded Americans willing to do an Otto Warmbier in countries with mile-long State Department warnings.

    A lot of comments are complaining about the title Russia used instead of USSR. Get over it, it was filmed in 1984. Before USSR the whole region was the Russian Empire and during USSR the word “Russia” was used synonymous along with “USSR” in the west, and included all the Russian republics (Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Ukraine). In the case of Ukraine, it was a much smaller *cultural* region before and even during USSR but they used the word Ukraine to describe a larger region for administrative convenience. It wasn’t describing the Ukranian cultural region but a far larger administrative region artificially contruxted by the USSR as an administrative function.
