"Liberation" Film Series


Liberation is a Soviet-Polish-East German-Italian-Yugoslav film series tell the account of the liberation of the Soviet Union's territory and the subsequent defeat of Nazi Germany in the Great Patriotic War, focusing on five major Eastern Front campaigns: the Battle of Kursk, the Lower Dnieper Offensive, Operation Bagration, the Vistula–Oder Offensive, and the Battle of Berlin.  These series of movies are your normal jingoistic war movie fare and bend history in favor as such but still worth checking out.  Give them a go below and see what the Soviets we watching back in the 70s.

 

Great insight to Soviet patriotism and its idea of how WWII played out,
