Prophet of Doom. Vanishing of Vladimir Alexandrov
Prophet of Doom. Vanishing of Vladimir Alexandrov at SFlix. At the height of the Cold War, prominent Soviet climatologist Vladimir Aleksandrov vanished while on a trip to Spain, in what was initially thought of as a defection. No trace of him was ever found. This is an investigation featuring interviews with his friends, family, colleagues, and political players at the time. They paint a tragic portrait of a man who was committed to science and his family, and was caught in a dangerous clash of ideologies. He became an important chess piece in a complex game of one-upmanship in a world on the brink of war. Like Icarus, he ascended very fast, and did not heed the warnings. He disappeared in Madrid on March 31, 1985. Now there is a new battlefield: to save the world from climate change. We will now learn how scientific theories are weaponized for political gain.
