Within the Whirlwind (2009, director Marleen Gorris, English language) is based on the memoir of Yevgenia Ginzburg, a Russian literature professor who was arrested on false charges during Stalin's reign of terror and sentenced to 10 years of hard labor in a Siberian Gulag. It stars Emily Watson and Pam Ferris. The film grippingly portrays how the human mind (psyche/soul) uses love (in several forms) to transcend otherwise horrific dehumanizing forces.
