This webisode is about Russian sub Sch-311 "Кумжа" which was found from Gulf of Finland in Baltic Sea at the end of summer 2012.
It tells the the story what happened to Sch-311 and is a portrait of Mikhail Ivanov, founder of the wreck. Going this deep into wreckhunting, the actual diving plays a minor part. It takes dedication and endurance to read through archives and endless days of scanning with sonar at sea.
To understand what happened to the wrecks, one also needs to understand how they worked, how was the crew trained and what were their most likely actions during different scenarios.
The film covers also interest that wrecks still have even today, 70 years after the war. Not only for the wreck diver community but to the nations and history writing.
