What really happened on August 17, 1998? Who lost everything, and who made fortunes? The film will tell the truth about the default. How do the heroes of that time live nowadays? Why were food stamps never introduced in the fall of 1998, and how was the country's economy rescued? The story still has a lot of moot points.

What is happening to Russia’s health care sector? Why is negligence and lack of professionalism so common today? Who treats us?

Every day tens of crimes qualified as sexual violence are committed in Russia. Children, teenagers, women, i.e. the most unprotected sections of population are exposed to violation.

If earlier disputes with regard to carrying—out of a body from the Mausoleum there started by politicians recently they were joined by historians who speak that it’s time to return to the Red Square its historical state, put away the Mausoleum and transfer so—called Kremlin necropolis containing 400 burial places, to more suitable place. How this dispute will end? And will it be solved the question which may become a rhetorical one?
