Many facts of the Great Patriotic War were hushed up in the Soviet years and beyond. This was especially true of the Arctic, where the rigidity of the confrontation of the mountain infantry division of the Wehrmacht with Soviet troops unprepared for war exceeded all conceivable victims.

Admiral of the Northern Fleet Arseniy Golovko described the tragic vicissitudes of the beginning of the war in his military diaries, which were published heavily truncated.

Notes from the director

It was a project about the author's love for the Arctic region, in which every stone, every island of moss breathes with the memory of the war that took place here. There are still places littered with cartridge cases, helmets, artifacts of the war. The north, due to climatic and natural features, retains traces of human presence for a long time.

I didn't expect history to repeat itself. But with other members.
