An interview / profile of Jack Barsky, a former spy for the Soviet Union’s KGB, assigned to the United States during the last years of the Cold War, with the aim of infiltrating President Jimmy Carter’s White House. Barsky, born Albrecht Dittrich in East Germany, was recruited by a Russian KGB agent. Failing at his original mission, he then worked at MetLife in IT, where he stole IBM source code for the Soviets. He also led a double life, with a wife and son in Germany and a wife and daughter in the United States. Recalled by the KGB in 1988, he made the decision to stay in the U.S. with his daughter. He lied to the KGB by telling them that he was dying of AIDS. He had another child, a son, and settled down with his family in Mount Bethel, Pennsylvania. The FBI started observing Barsky, and in May of 1997 had gathered enough evidence to question him. After the interrogation, the FBI concluded that his spy days were over and that he would be most useful in supplying information as to how the KGB operated. He now lives in upstate New York as director of software development for an undisclosed company that manages New York’s high-voltage power grid. Also includes interviews with: Joe Reilly, former FBI agent; and Chelsea (last name not disclosed), Barsky’s daughter.

One hundred years ago, the Herero people of Namibia were nearly exterminated by German colonial soldiers in what has become known as the first genocide of the 20th century. Herero men, women and children were rounded up like cattle and put into Germany's first ever concentration camps. Four years later, three-quarters of the entire Herero nation had perished at the hands of German colonialists. The Nazis used the experiences from the German concentration camps in Namibia as well as their experiments in "racial science" when they formulated the Final Solution during World War II a few decades later. Today the Hereros claim billions of euros from the German government in repatriation for the genocide. The experience of one family is described by a descendant, a 23-year-old Herero woman named Georgina. She has a fair complexion and a green tinge to her eyes. Georgina is aware of the fact that her great-grandmother was raped by a German soldier and now wants to confront the demons of her own genetic past. High School College Adult
