《Russia War Masterpiece
Directed by: Vadim Shumeryov
Synopsis:
This film tells the story of the brave resistance of the Podolsk military academy cadets in October 1941, on the outskirts of Moscow. Cadets from the Podolsk Infantry and Artillery School were dispatched to the Ilyinsky Defense Line to fight alongside the troops of the Soviet 43rd Army, stopping the advance of the German army until reinforcements arrived. Outnumbered, these young individuals, barely in their teens, sacrificed their lives during a battle that lasted nearly two weeks. This battle aimed to halt the vastly superior German forces' advance towards Moscow. The film is not only about war; it also concerns love, true friendship, and the journey from childhood to adulthood. Approximately 3,500 cadets and their commanders were sent to hold the last line of defense outside Moscow. Most of them remained there forever.
