Siberia of the 1990s is a murky, slow and inexorable whirlpool of human destinies, tragedies, ups and downs. The richest region, plunged into the abyss of economic chaos and criminal lawlessness. The so-called “democratic reforms”, which determined the confusion and degradation of the great country for many years, did not bypass the Siberian region. And only a few, who saw and realized the impending catastrophe, tried to shout out, to reach out to the rest. Among these selfless people was the journalist Ivan Bazanov, who through his newspaper is trying to convey to people the truth about what is happening and donating his love and family happiness to the fight against the new unrest.
