Why go to the trouble for them. I don;t think they are especially good documentaries at all. I suggest you watch them via Youtube if you want to:

Part 1 - Freedom and Hope (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xZV5TJZRz0)

Part 2 - Freedom and Hope (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bN_cCABoPg)

Part 3 - Freedom and Hope (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbJPnp2vLdQ)

Part 4 - Freedom and Hope (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LChZ08QoQHU)

Part 5 - Freedom and Hope (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9QWx-tfjJA)

Part 1 - Fear and Paranoia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BbOwfdKrSo)

Part 2 - Fear and Paranoia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6h5szJWcF4)

Part 3 - Fear and Paranoia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mst29javmhA)

Part 4 - Fear and Paranoia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khA2qZz-aW8)

It's a nice piece of liberal propaganda (against revolution of course). It uses Kronstadt to devide the whole Revolution with it's participants into two camps: the idealists (Kronstadt) and the dictators (Bolsheviks). Also notice the voice :(.
