The Cranes Are Flying, 1957 (dir. Mikhail Kalatozov)

This Soviet film tells a story of love and life during WWII. It depicts the damage done to the Soviet psyche as a result of war’s cruelty. It is remembered as one of the first Russian films to treat the war as a tragedy.

“We have won, and we shall live not to destroy, but to build a new life!”

“Our wounds will heal but our fierce hatred of war will never diminish.”
