Kursk: 10 Days that Shaped Putin (2025)

EndedDocumentary showHistory

Set against a ticking clock, this two-part Sky History commission tells an urgent story of political drama, military bravery, and loss in a defining moment in the history of modern Russia. Kursk: 10 Days That Shaped Putin is a dramatic and forensic examination of events that took place in August 2000, after an explosion onboard the Kursk submarine trapped a group of survivors at the bottom of the Barents Sea. Why did the Russians take so long to accept international assistance? How did this crisis and subsequent reporting change Russia and importantly, how would it shape Putin's own trajectory as the new President of Russia? The film hears first-hand testimony from those involved from President Bill Clinton to families of the submariners and an American submarine Commander who witnessed it first hand, taking us behind the closed doors of the White House, and below the surface with rescue divers who finally make it down to the stricken submarine.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
