“Karen Shavnazarov shows us a different side of u0026quot;Soviet era war filmsu0026quot;. Not straightly patriotic, with no heroes, u0026quot;politruksu0026quot;, shouting hurrahs… The film is about war itself, itu0026#39;s more philosophical film about tragedy of war and God. I would say, itu0026#39;s like David Lynch shot a film about WWII. Mystical and tragic story for me The story is about tank driver, Ivan, who was severely burnt in a fight, but divinely survived. Set in a latest war days, somewhere in a Hungarian borderlines. Heu0026#39;s regarded as a lieutenant for a command of a newly built tank T-34-85 to fight a mysterious u0026quot;White Tigeru0026quot; tank, destroying Soviet tank battalions with no harm.”
