DESCRIPTION
A Cold War of Spies
History Documentary hosted by James MacPhee, published by Super Channel in 2023 - English narration
Information
------------------------------
They passed intelligence, intercepted communications, stole blueprints and mapped targets. But ultimately they drove the deep-seated paranoia and distrust that would forever change the course of history.
The Cold War. A world divided. A global race to claim superior military might that reshaped the world. A conflict that would never be fought on the battlefield, but rather would face off in an espionage confrontation, East vs West.
At the outset of the Cold War, the USSR launched a secret surveillance mission on a scale the world had never seen. Their records of buildings, transportation networks, power grids, and factories would generate over a million highly classified maps.
From eyes in the sky to boots on the ground, they stalked the shadows behind enemy lines. Some were government agents. Others, recruited assets, couriers, and handlers. Many were defectors, turncoats, or moles. All laid their lives on the line for their main objective, "secure vital information about the enemy". Now, only 30 years out from the close of the Cold War, many strange missions are coming to light.

4) The Battle Over Hearts and Minds
At the close of WWII, the West views Stalin's government as a threat to democracy, while Stalin sees America as an obstacle in winning the 'hearts and minds' of oppressed people everywhere. Communist leaders like Romania's Nicolae Ceausescu use everything from terrorist attacks to assassinations to shut down so-called "freedom radios." In the US, an organization called HUAC attempts to hunt down communist supporters, teetering between protecting American values and violating their civil rights. Long after the Berlin Wall falls, disinformation and propaganda campaigns continue to be used as tools to shift the ideological tides.
