Operation 'Trust' (Season 1)

Operation Trust (1968) is a Soviet spy drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Sergei Kolosov built the series on documented events: in the 1920s, the VChK under Dzerzhinsky's direction raised a fake monarchist underground from scratch — and used it to draw White emigrant networks across the border into Soviet hands.

The cast includes Igor Gorbachyov, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Donatas Banionis. False identities, encrypted couriers, double contacts who believe they are meeting genuine anti-Soviet conspirators. What gives the series its edge is that everyone running the operation knows it is a trap — except the ones walking into it. Stream Operation Trust (1968) online on iFILM.
