In 1943, 20,000 Yugoslav partisans led by Tito find themselves encircled by 120,000 well-armed Axis troops in the mountains of Bosnia and must break out of encirclement.

The Battle of Sutjeska known as ''fifth offensive'' is the hardest, most tragic and the greatest battle that was led Yugoslav partisans in World War II. Chaos, hell, fates, suffering, heroic deaths, and all the tragedy of Sutjeska is poetically, and at the same time tragically, described in this phenomenal film. This film was made for the 30th anniversary of the battle and is also the most expensive movie in the history of Yugoslav cinema.—krule88
