The movement of the heart

When I first saw this film, I realized this is the film about the the story in WW1 which is similar to the short film "Procelain Unicorn", I am not quite a fan of the war movies but based on the history, this movie is undoubtedly described what really happened in the history. Firstly, the Russian army recruitment scene moves my heart and I deeply felt the desire of the Russian to win against German Army in the battle and this also describes the fighting spirit of the Russian people. Also, there is a scene which two women hugged each other indicates that behind the war there is love.

Entertaining, but not truthful

Russia had already lost the war, and carrying on with it was pointless.

Does show how gruesome the war was, but fails to question the need to fight it.

Enemy soldiers in uniform are entitled to collect military intelligence and are not spies. To ignore a white flag is a war crime.

Maria Bochkareva got pardoned once, but urged US intervention to help the far-right and antisemitic Whites in Russia's Civil War. Saying she was 'seen as on the White side' is not a fair summation of this.

Came back to fight as part of their army, was captured and executed.
