The Ascent

Larisa Shepitko’s emotionally overwhelming final film won the top prize at the 1977 Berlin Film Festival and has been hailed around the world as the finest Soviet film of its decade. Set during World War II’s darkest days, the film follows the path of two peasant soldiers, cut off from their troop, who trudge through the snowy backwoods of Belarus seeking refuge among villagers and forming a deep bond through their shared traumatic experiences. Their harrowing trek leads them on a journey of betrayal, heroism, and ultimate transcendence.
