    Inside Red Army vs. Nazi invasors

    A major war movie, with an intimate sight on a Soviet regiment that is fighting back invading Nazi troops while retreating. Another interesting issue that is portrayed here are their relations with local peasant people, whose feelings towards retreat are well explored by the script too. Anyway, the greatest merit of this film are the war scenes, very well done, quite realistic.
