Our second Soviet film this week is THE ASCENT (1977). In the hands of director Larisa Shepitko, this tale of two partisan fighters captured by German soldiers takes on the aspect of a religious parable. #YabtM #reviews #YouTube #worldcinema #foreigncinema #warmovies #Russia #USSR #movies #film #cinema #FilmMastodon #Cinemastodon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Zv-AQqG4F4
