Collapse: How Ukrainians Destroyed the Evil Empire (2021) watch online

Collapse: How Ukrainians Destroyed the Evil Empire is a 2021 documentary miniseries on the Ukrainian public television channel Pershyi. It reveals details on the 1989–1991 Ukrainian revolution, the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the 1991 Soviet coup attempt that had been kept secret for decades, and places them in the wider historical context. The concept was developed by Yaroslav Lodyhin, directed by Serhiy Lysenko, written by Oleksandr Zinchenko, produced by Vitaliy Sheremetiev, Olha Bregman, Iryna Budnova, Serhiy Nedzelskyi, and Yaroslav Lodyhin. The TV series tells the story of Ukraine's withdrawal from the Soviet Union and the role of Ukrainians in the collapse of the so-called Evil Empire. This is arguably the first attempt to present a wholly Ukrainian perspective, free from the narratives of any foreign state.

The series premiered on television on 23 August 2021. On 23 August, Pershyi broadcast four episodes back-to-back from 5 pm. And on 24 August from 6 pm, the other three were broadcast.
