Rzhev background

Rzhev

The film is set during a brutal winter in 1942/1943, amidst the lesser-known but intense battles near Rzhev, notorious for its high casualty rate.

In the village of Ovsyannikovo, the Red Army finally defeats the enemy after months of intense fighting, but at a devastating cost - only a third of the original personnel remain. The exhausted soldiers are awaiting reinforcements, but instead receive an order to hold the village at all costs, a decision that amounts to a death sentence.
