This is the first movie that i have voted to get 10/10. I have watched
the original Russian version as well as the subtitled international
one. Both actually offer a different perception.
The film examines the absurdity of war and of interpersonal
communication between the "enemies". However, it also shows how the
individuals who are involved can grow to overcome their prejudices,
although sometimes at the price of attempting to kill someone who would
be your friend under the different circumstances.
Historical accuracy of this film should be taken as a measuring stick
for all the other films of the similar genre.
