Editorial Reviews

"Harvest of Despair" documents the Ukrainian terror famine of 1932-33, which caused the deaths of 7,000,000 people. Using interviews with survivors and scholars to supplement rare photographic evidence, it established that the terror famine was deliberately created by the Soviet Government as part of Stalin's decades-long effort to destroy the Ukrainian peasantry, who resisted the forced collectivization of their lands. Since its original release, it has received many international awards (including an Academy Award nomination) and has been featured on William F. Buckley's Firing Line program on the PBS television network. A powerful film, "Harvest of Despair" provides rare insight into one of this century's least-known but most vicious genocides.

B&W, 55 minutes.

OMG! This is one of the most tragic-but all ...

July 1, 2015

Verified Purchase

OMG! This is one of the most tragic-but all too common-events that has happened in Russia and Nazi Germany and many other places and times throughout history; death by starvation is a very slow and miserable way to die. Due to the graphic theme and gut-wrenching brutality of this DVD I can not watch more than 5-10 minutes at a time; however, out of respect for the dead, I continue to view the DVD as long as possible. The story of the Ukrainian terror famine of 1932-33 which caused the deaths of 7 million people should be included in high school and college world history courses; it is an event that is one of this century's least-known but most vicious genocides. This event was deliberately created by the Soviet Government as part of Joseph Stalin's decades-long effort to exterminate the Ukrainian peasants who were against the forced collectivization of their lands.

Workers' Paradise

October 24, 2015

Verified Purchase

Very good documentary about the ignored and forgotten Holocaust that no one in the media wants to mention. It was one of Stalin's methods for implementing the "workers' paradise." There were many, many others, such as the genocide of Armenians by the Muslim Turks or the Rape of Nanking. All we ever hear seem to hear about is the Nazi Holocaust and the endless stream of movies to remind us. We need more balanced reporting, recognition, and empathy for the victims of these other massacres.

Harvet of Dispair: The Unknown Holocause (Death by Starvation)

April 10, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is a riviting movie about the Ukrainian Holocaust, "Death by Starvation"! My mother is a Holocause survivor. Unbelievable how Durante of the New York Times chose to "NOT REPORT" this horrifying time to the American people and then he got a Pulitzer Prize for his reporting! A travesty for the NY Times to not "give-up" the Pulitzer Prize for the "cover-up"! I highly recommend this movie for all to see! It is something that should & will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN! 10 million Ukrainians perished by this famine. 10,000 villages were decimated!

Ukranian holocaust

January 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

Unfortunately, there was no Nuremberg trial for the Russians. Controlling information was the Communist regime's specialty, so relatively few are aware of the planned starvation of the Ukranians in 1932-1933. Holodomor killed 7 million...watch and learn!

Forgotten Genocide

June 21, 2014

Verified Purchase

The video gives an uncompromising account of the genocide by starvation of seven million Ukrainians under the rule of Josef Stalin. Not short of gory details but a good idea of what can happen under a totalitarian government.

Watched it with a Korean missionary to the Ukraine. She cried and had many comments over how people she knew shared the same stories with her. Good job.
