The battle of Moscow was the first major defeat of German Wehrmacht in the Second World War. The film is dedicated to some fighting events that took place in the USSR after Hitler's conquest of western Europe.

The war with the Soviet Union, despite the initial victories, developed for the German command in a slightly different scenario than with Poland or the Western European countries. The Blitzkrieg plan (Operation Barbarossa) involved the capture of Moscow during the first 10-12 weeks of the war. However, despite the successes of the Wehrmacht in the early days of the offensive, the increased resistance of the Red Army and a number of objective reasons prevented its implementation.—Peter-Patrick76 ([email protected])
