Plot synopsis
This feature-length documentary focuses on the western advancement of the Soviet Army after the Germans and their allies had been driven out of the Ukraine. Despite the triumphant tone of the film, it also captures the terrible swath of destruction caused by the enemy. Seen today, the film perhaps takes on more ambiguous overtones, yet there is no denying the extraordinary power of Dovzhenko's images
