Confrontation is a Soviet 1985 detective mini-series, directed by Semyon Aranovich and based on the novel by Yulian Semyonov. Ugolovny Rozysk (crime police) detective Col. Vladislav Nikolaevich Kostenko (Oleg Basilashvili) investigate a brutal murder. The investigation leads him to the trace of Nikolai Krotov (Andrei Boltnev), a person who in the Summer of 1941 defected to the German side and became a valuable agent of Abwehr, and after the war posed himself as Grigoriy Milinko, a former Red Army soldier, who in reality was murdered by Krotov in 1945. In the 1970s Krotov is involved in illegal gold trade and robberies. When Kostenko unmasks Krotov, the latter tries to hijack a plane but fails.
Scenes set in the 1970s are filmed in color while WW2-era scenes, as well as the climactic scene in 1980, are B&W.
The following weapons were used in the film Confrontation (Protivostoyanie):
Pistols
Makarov PM
In the scene of the hijacking of a plane Makarov PM pistols are seen in the hands and holsters of Soviet Militsia personnel, including Col. Vladislav Nikolaevich Kostenko (Oleg Basilashvili) and his assistant Maj. Revaz Kardava (Murman Jinoria).
Walther P38
In the scene of the Battle of Breslau in March 1945 Nikolai Krotov (Andrei Boltnev) takes a Walther P38 from his commander, SS-Unterscharfuhrer (Valeriy Doronin). Krotov uses this pistol thirty-five years later when he hijacks a plane.
Submachine Guns
PPSh-41
PPSh-41 SMGs are seen in several scenes, set during WW2.
PPS-43
What appears a PPS-43 is partially seen in the photo of Grigoriy Milinko.
MP40
German soldiers carry MP40s in the scene of the execution of Soviet POWs in concentration camp. Nikolai Krotov (Andrei Boltnev) and his commander, SS-Unterscharfuhrer (Valeriy Doronin), use MP40s during the Battle of Breslau in March 1945.
