Wikipedia article
'Komsomolsk' or 'The Frozen North' (also known a 'City of Youth') is a 1938 Soviet drama film directed by Sergei Gerasimov. Made by Lenfilm, it is a propaganda work set against the backdrop of the construction of the new city of Komsomolsk. Although the film portrays this as the work of the Young Communist volunteers, it was in reality built largely by Gulag prisoners.Katyn: A Crime Without Punishment p.471
