In Stalinist Russia, Chabua Amiredjibi endured years of imprisonment, backbreaking punishment, horrific torture, and two death sentences. But his broken life and ill health did not kill his hope of gaining freedom. In all, he managed six escapes from Stalin's Gulag Camps. He stood up, fought and survived. Drawing on archival footage, testimony from historians and family members, and reconstructed episodes, The Story of the Gulag Runaway chronicles Amiredjibi's heartbreaking misfortune as well as his astonishing luck. Withstanding violence, terror and humiliation, he managed to keep both a sense of humor and an upbeat perspective. Knowing that he could be caught again at any time, he refused to live underground. Instead he forged a new life with a wife and children-all the while under the threat of discovery and yet more imprisonment-and even execution. The Story of the Gulag Runaway is a film about one remarkable man's determination to not only survive but to remain free, no matter what the price.
