Before Russia became the cradle of Hollywood movie villains, it was a country that enjoyed the sympathies of North America for its resistance and fierce opposition to the Nazi invasion during World War II. We are in 1941. The German invasion front is advancing through Russian territory trying to reach Saint Petersburg and the Red Army is leaving small guerrilla groups to stop them. One of those groups is led by Vladimir, who is followed, among others, by the beautiful dancer Nina, who despite her initial ineptitude, ended up learning how to be a good soldier. The film, propagandistic and patriotic to the core, gave Toumanova, a Russian Monte Carlo ballet dancer and wife of the film's screenwriter and producer, Casey Robinson, her first leading role, although the one who would come out best would be her (at that time) then) unknown co-star, Gregory Peck. Directed by Jacques Tourneur, the film escapes the conventions of the time, giving its protagonists an unusual ending in a closing scene with an excellent and spectacular war recreation.
