In the 1980s, a Soviet computer scientist headed for Moscow with U.S. software tapes hidden under his clothes. Three decades later, his colleagues gathered at a California dinner party to reminisce about how they built the first internet in the U.S.S.R. Their story is part of a new seven-part documentary series, InterNYET, by Current Time TV exploring the history of the Russian web.
