A rather strange little documentary called "Cosmodrome" runs on Netflix.
It has to do with the Russian rocket engine technology, and specifically the NK-33 engine, plus the RD-180 currently used on our Atlas 5 rocket.
The whole Russian engine purchase story is one big fiasco if you look at it from anything other than short term perspective, but there are plenty of interesting technical details in the film, to make it interesting.
Rarely seen footage of disastrous N1 launches alone are worth the 49 minutes viewing.
So very Russian are gold front teeth of some of their designers. :)
