1942 Unknown battle

WWII 1942: Rzhev, USSR. After one of the many brutal battles between the Red Army and the Nazis near the village of Ovsyannikovo, only half of the Red Army company survives - for now. Icy cold and with little or no reinforcements as the Nazis close in, the company receives the impossible order from Soviet headquarters to hold the village at all costs.

Trapped in this crucial strategic position, the members of the company overcome their fears while also finding the strength to believe in their unlikely chance of survival. With the weight of his soldiers' lives on their shoulders, the company commander is faced with the choice of sending his unit towards certain death in battle or death by court-martial. Like a drop in the ocean, this one battle reveals the honorable yet tragic scope of the struggle the Red Army fought to help defeat the Nazis in World War II.
