Travel From St. Petersburg to Moscow: a Special Path
In 1790, Alexander Radishchev published the book "Journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow", in which he fearlessly exposed the vices of his time: despotism, corruption, poverty and disenfranchisement of the people. For his free-thinking, the writer was sentenced to death, which, by the royal grace, was replaced by a 10-year exile to Siberia.
The film crew decided to repeat Radishchev's route and see how people live today on the side of the federal highway M10 "Russia" connecting the two capitals. How has Russian life changed over the past two hundred years? Have we started to live better? Richer? Freer?
