On July 12, 1943, at the Kursk Bulge near the Prokhorovka station, an unprecedented number of tanks converged in one battle. Here was first used the latest armored vehicles - "Tigers", "Panthers" and "Ferdinand". By July 1943, the Soviet T-34 had already lost its undisputed edge on the battlefield.

Hitler believed in his new tanks and sought revenge for the defeat at Stalingrad. In the Soviet Headquarters, contrary to all the rules of tactics and strategy, an unexpected decision was made: to meet the armored divisions of the SS with a frontal tank counterattack.

There are no rules in this area. close

Documentary: BBC: The Battlefield. Wolves was filmed on 400 square kilometers of the Rocky Mountains, on which the possession of North American wolves is located.
It is in this territory, due to its remoteness from cities and villages, roads and factories, that wolves feel themselves the real masters of all mountains (it is because of this that the number of wolves reach an impressive size here). And that is why to study the behavior and life of wolves in the wild, scientists chose local packs, watching the daily skirmishes of one pack with others, their hunting and fight with bears – the most dangerous opponents of wolves. close

Faces, joy, sorrow, fun, despair... It’s all very well composed, rhythmical, with atmosphere conveyed, and lives up to what a documentary should be: multilayered and universal. And about Life. close

The dramatic story of three great Russian avant-garde painters from the beginning of the last century – Kazimir Malevich, Pavel Filonov and Vladimir Tatlin more
The dramatic story of three great Russian avant-garde painters from the beginning of the last century – Kazimir Malevich, Pavel Filonov and Vladimir Tatlin – and their supporter, Nikolai Punin, the first post-revolution Commissar of the Hermitage and Russian Museums. They dedicated their lives to belief in the revolution and its connection to avant-garde art, but the communist regime betrayed them. The history depicted on the painted canvases reflects the tumultuous period of the 1920s and 30s in the Soviet Union, in Leningrad and in artistic circles of the time. Only with perestroika have the avant-garde paintings, stored in museum archives, again seen the light of day. close
