**The movie about the forgotten people. Gripping and tragic.** A very nice dramatic film with a very good cast! Thanks to the producer for having the courage to create such a masterpiece. This is one of the films that forced me to think about the meaning of life and the cruelty of the criminal Russian army (and especially the policy of its government) and how the international community turns a blind eye. I sincerely thank you, Michel Hazanavicius.
