About the purpose of the creation of the painting and what is the role of cinema in reflecting the values of the great Patriotic war, said the film’s producer Sergey Shcheglov.
According to him, the film at the end of last year were not random, but timed to the 75th anniversary of the Victory. “We were the first and decided to open what is called the series of films about the Great Patriotic war. But, unfortunately, the coronavirus has made its own adjustments, and probably a few were able to make the premiere of the 75th anniversary. We are one of them,” said goldfinches.
Answering the question of why was chosen Rzhevskaya battle, the producer recalled that it was one of the most terrible tragedies of the great Patriotic war. Rzhev killed more than a million Soviet soldiers. He also noted that strategically Rzhev were not valuable, it was the diversion of German forces, so say little about it. That’s what such paintings to our young generation and adults to show how people have defended and died.
Shcheglov said that to make a film based on the novel by Vyacheslav Kondratyev “Bathe in blood” suggested Yevgeny Prigozhin. The businessman, active participation in the creation did not take, but gave valuable advice. “Evgeny is also a man not indifferent to the history of the great Patriotic war, a patriot of our country. He has allocated funds to be able to tell this story. It’s worth it. There are people who speak about war, about patriotism, but do nothing. This man talks little but does much,” says goldfinches.
goldfinches emphasized that it is impossible to say that the film is focused on a particular category of viewers. “The film is designed for all generations. Young people do not know what war is, fortunately, and may not know. But it is intended to the memory of our ancestors have not been forgotten,” he said.
the theme of the great Patriotic war today is just as important as before. “If we want to see the country’s future in the hands of our children, such films should be removed. The authenticity of Russia will be always on top if the children will not forget history. From someone who has no history has no future. Therefore, these films are always needed so that people understand what the price of today’s life exists, and who and how much did you pay for it”, – concluded the goldfinches.
