Documentary

In November 1942, shortly after the Wehrmacht launched the attack on Stalingrad, the Soviet counteroffensive called "Operation Uranus" began. The German troops were encircled and met their deaths or fell into captivity. Only about 6000 German soldiers eventually returned from the Russian prison camps. This documentary focuses on the construction of a cemetery for the fallen soldiers in the battle for Stalingrad.

A Soviet documentary chronicling the Battle of Stalingrad, one of the turning points of World War II.

Released internationally—with the U.S. version retitled The City That Stopped Hitler: Heroic Stalingrad—the film served both as a record of the Red Army’s victory and as a powerful work of wartime propaganda.
