The film is narrated from the perspective of a Soviet Red Army trumpeter and a pupil. "I imagined war, but I never imagined it would be like this. He came so suddenly, simple and terrifying." Everyone has fantasized about the war, but when the mud near your feet is bombarded by cannonballs to the sky and then it falls to the sky. On the face, you will feel the real horror. After a brief panic, the garrison of Brites quickly organized the remaining forces, resolutely picked up the weapon and began a fearless resistance. Whether it is the panic of the residents over the war or the difference between the soldiers and their lovers and children, the film is meticulously portrayed. The mother's cry, the children's tears, and the lover's embrace opened the painful prelude to the war.
Due to the disparity in power between the two sides and the lack of weapons, coupled with the delay in the appearance of reinforcements, the fighters of Breites faced a battle that was almost impossible to win. But they had no fear in the face of German tanks, used all kinds of things that could be called "weapons" to resist, and their strong desire to defend their homeland repelled the German invaders again and again. What impressed me was that the little boy in the film found the lieutenant’s daughter and brought it to the lieutenant. When the lieutenant asked him to take the girl to surrender to the German army to save his life, the little boy firmly said: "No, I am a Soviet army. Soldiers." The film does not describe individual heroism. Both garrison soldiers and brave family members are the main theme of this film. Everyone who has been ravaged by war is blurred by blood, but his eyes are always clear. bright. Countless unknown little people have left a deep impression on us.
The original classic and brutal battle on the battlefield of the Soviet Union and Germany in the Second World War lasted for a year because of the stubborn resistance of the soldiers of the Brest Fortress. The film made great efforts to restore the scene of the war, presenting a tragic and tragic real scene to the audience, and the scene of the fierce battle is exciting. The bombardment of shells, the blasting of machine guns, the collapsed houses, and the naked melee can shock the audience watching the film. The serenity and peace at the beginning of the film further bring out the cruelty of the war, and it is even more sad to describe it as a war survivor. The scene where the iron-blooded lieutenant took out a family portrait before his final sacrifice is filled with a touch of warmth. The image of the Soviet Red Army also adds color to the film, which seems weak but full of firmness. War is a cruel term. The 133-minute film restores a real battlefield to us, paying tribute to the soldiers of the Brest Fortress who fought bloody battles to defend their homes.
