The movie is set in 1941,in the first World War.

 

A pilot of the Soviet Union lands his plane after the plane was shot and lost a lot of fuel. Unfortunately,he and his comrade,landed in the part of Russia under the Nazi command,and were hunted down,having to run for their lives.

His comrade is killed,but he managed to leave him on a floating ice patch.

 

When he wakes up he faces ice cold water of the Russian winter,the Nazi troops who are always one step behind,and a hungry pack of wolves.

We see him trying to survive drinking water made from melted snow,and berries,while his health is deteriorating,having frost bites in both legs,among other nasty things.

 

The soundtrack was Ok, the set design and the costumes top notch,so were the action scenes and visual effects.

The actors were great,especially Pyotr Fyodorov,who deserves the Oscar for this role.

 

Unluckily,war movies aren't my thing,so the movie really bored me.

 

The movie is for rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, Apple iTunes, DIRECTV, Google Play Movies, Microsoft Store, Redbox, Spectrum on Demand, Vudu, YouTube.
