The Iron Curtain/铁幕


This documentary-like movie is about the story of Soviet cypher-clerk Igor Gouzenko, whose betray from the Soviet Union to Canada is regarded as the symbol of the start of the Cold War, which I think is the reason why this movie was called "Iron Curtain".

Gouzenko worked two years from 1943 to 1945 in the embassy in Ottawa before he converted to the Canadian government for safety guarantee with his wife and son, and he transferred several very important papers which disclosed the spy act from Russia in atomic weapons in America and Canada. He was really a hero and he was encouraged enough to take actions against his so-called motherland.
