Mikhail Savelyevich Shaprov (aka the gypsy Shapiro) lived not one, but three lives. Revolutionary romantic and diplomat; "enemy of the people" and political prisoner; a documentary filmmaker who reveals to people all the most important things in this world.

“Dear N.N., my book has a special path, probably depending solely on my mediocrity in life. Therefore, it is difficult for me to talk about the book and even a little painful. But it needs to be spoken." It is not known to whom Sofia Fedorchenko wrote these lines. The letter is interrupted in mid-sentence. And the book with the simple title "The People at War", about which "it hurts to talk", became her Golgotha. This book was the greatest happiness of her life and destroyed her whole life. Fedorchenko went to the front as an unknown nurse, and returned as the author of a sensational, unparalleled, cruel chronicle of the war.

There are almost 270,000 tons of plastic waste in the world's oceans today. It is many times less than glass, concrete or iron. It's just that plastic is more visible than the tip of the iceberg of ocean debris, it doesn't sink. However, plastic consumption is growing much faster than other materials, which means that there will be more plastic waste tomorrow. There is a problem, and it is pointless to deny it. But at the same time, plastic is a tool that can meet the growing needs of mankind. A substitute for wood, metal and glass, thanks to which we can preserve our forests. Unbreakable, able to take any given shape, recyclable, and therefore an environmentally friendly material. So who is right? Those who think plastic is evil, or those who say it's good?
