“The Unknown Genius Ivan Franko” is a journalistic investigation from the series “The Real Story with Akim Halimov.” For his phenomenal abilities and great talent, Ivan Franko was nominated for the Nobel Prize in 1916. Unfortunately, the writer did not live to see possible worldwide recognition for only a few months. The host of the program, Akim Halimov, will tell what Franco really was like, what pages of his biography were hidden from us during Soviet times, and what incredible talents of his remained unjustly forgotten.
