Documentary that explores what the lives of ordinary people were like before the fall of communism in 1989. As the rush to freedom gathered pace throughout the Eastern Bloc countries, the way of life for millions of former communist citizens was about to change forever. But behind the stereotypical images of spies, the secret police and the Cold War, what was normal life like for the the average Soviet citizen, and was it really as bad as the West would have us believe? Peter Molloy talks to those who lived through the changes, and opens a door into a world that disappeared almost literally overnight.
