A grim, relentless war drama that immerses you in hopeless combat and the heavy cost of survival.

Overview: Lieutenant Doronin and his troops are moved to a narrow mountain pass. The task seems simple: to defend the pass from the insurgents and not let them pass. But the 200 Russian soldiers do not expect that they will soon be facing 2000 Chechens ready for battle and will have to fight for bare survival.
How it feels: Bleak, tense, earnest and dark. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: War, survival, loyalty, betrayal
Content: Strong violence and gore. Mild language. No sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
