This movie is a depiction of a real fact, the war between Romania and Russia against the Turkey Empire. Beside the realistic scenes of heroic atacks of romanian elite soldiers (named "dorobanti" or "caciulari", from their fur caps) against the fortified lines of the turkey army, one conclusion must be drawn from this movie: it is important to win a war but more important is to win the peace after that war. I recommended it for those who love history.
