The authors of the film-investigation set a goal to find out the true reasons for the murder of the legendary hero of the Civil War Grigory Kotovsky. For many years, well-known historians and descendants of the red general have been trying to understand who benefited from Kotovsky's death, which was always presented solely as a result of a domestic conflict? The general was killed in 1925, allegedly at a friendly party. He was shot not just by a comrade-in-arms, but by a man who owes a lot to him. Perhaps the origins of the tragedy should be sought in the criminal past of Kotovsky himself. On the other hand, the killer could have been pushed to this step by those who were directly interested in eliminating the popular but absolutely uncontrollable hero of the Civil War from political life.
