But nine sticks so & nbsp; and remained not crossed out ... Remember the former prisoners of Mauthausen Ivan Vasilyevich Chuprin, Igor Fedorovich Malitsky, Boris Nikolaevich Ozerov and others. close

The short film by the Soviet and then Ukrainian director Nikolai Mashchenko is based on the story by Alexander Serafimovich, which takes place during the Great Patriotic War. A Soviet soldier rushes to the train with a small blonde girl in his arms. This train should evacuate children from the orphanage to the rear. However, the train leaves without waiting, and four-year-old Tanya finds herself in the frontline position of our troops.
Light and shadows
Not indifferent to the fate of the child soldiers decide to independently deliver the girl to the nearest station. Having set off on a dangerous path, they cross the river and go deep into the forest. Tanya obediently passes from one hand to the other, falls asleep on the soldiers' shoulders, and sometimes she is lowered to the ground so that the girl rests from the journey "above". This summer forest and blond child create an island of peace. Tanya looks at the juicy leaves of the fern, high pines, walking on the ground with bare feet. But adults understand that the forest silence is dangerous, and as if to confirm this suspicion, the roaring of a wounded horse is heard.
On the brink
There was a fight here, and a horse dying in convulsions has to be shot. Tanya does not understand what is happening, but her uncle Volodya and other soldiers are not alone in the pine forest. The Germans are coming to meet them. A fight ensues. Tanya is mortally frightened and tries to escape, but runs into a Hitler soldier. Suddenly everything calms down, and again there is only summer in the world, a deer lurking somewhere, a blond thin crumb and... a fascist.
This doomed guy suddenly feels sorry for the girl. He pats Tanya on the face and tries to leave, but the baby follows him. A Hitlerite hears a Russian soldier approaching the meadow and loudly calls for a quiet girl. Then, in order for Vladimir to find her, the German has to whip Tanya with a leaf of fern. She looks at him with tears: how could it happen that this uncle with good eyes raised his hand on her? The cry of the girl comes to her defender, and two fighters who have preserved a human soul have to come face to face.
Shooting
Despite the fact that the film shows only the “corner edges” of the war, the film “Tanya” was created with the participation of professional army consultants. The film was shot on black and white film - so, it was customary at that time to create paintings about the Great Patriotic War. On the screens "Tanya" first appeared in 1067. close
