Goli Otok is a naked island off the coast of Croatia that served as
a penal colony for political prisoners of Yugoslavia after World
War II. Thousands were Partisan fighters against the German
occupation caught on the Soviet side of the ideological split
between Moscow and Belgrade in 1948. Many leaders of the pro-Soviet
faction were slain trying to flee eastward. Other leaders and
thousands of followers were imprisoned on Goli Otok. Many died
there. Years later, Sergei Korneichuk, a Red Army intelligence
agent is assigned to Belgrade under cover as a correspondent of
Radio Moscow. His activities reveal how the seeds were sown for the
collapse of the Soviet Union and the dissolution of Yugoslavia.
