Short summary

At the negotiations of the USSR-Germany, German companies decided to purchase Soviet gas. The financial security of the transaction was guaranteed by Deutsche Bank, which granted a loan of 2,000,000,000 marks. But Germany was pressured by Washington in order to get the gas pipe deal to be abandoned. After the German refusal to supply pipes, it was decided to build a factory in the Urals.

The plot is based on the biographies of real participants in the historical events of the Cold War, connected with the conclusion of the century's transaction of "gas pipe".
