Lost in Siberia (1991) (original sound w/o subtitles). Part 4/8.

The story, on one level, is about the appalling fate of an English archaeologist, Andrew (aka Andrei) Miller, who is mistaken for an American spy by Stalin's secret police, captured and tortured. When they realise their mistake, they try to conceal it by having Miller sent off to a gulag in Siberia. The grim conditions and the cruelty, not least from fellow prisoners, is believably portrayed. But, like a small oasis, there is kindness in the form of the young girl Lilka, and the female doctor in the camp, Anna, who originally came there to follow her husband when he was sentenced for some unspecified political deviancy...
