Experiencing Interruptions?

Storming of Königsberg

"Storming of Königsberg" is another one of our short films, where I also took on the roles of director and one of the screenwriters. Everything happened very suddenly and spontaneously! We were asked to capture on camera a reconstruction of one of the battles of the Great Patriotic War. There were no professional actors, just a group of enthusiasts, so to speak. However, I had a great opportunity to work on set with a large number of people.

When I was offered the chance to shoot this, I decided to take the opportunity to not just create a documentary-style reconstruction, but to make a short fictional film! We came up with a story, and I knew exactly how I wanted to direct it. That's how our small, yet proud film came to life, with a large cast, explosions, and gunfire. I gained invaluable experience working with a large crew, pyrotechnics, and a fantastic team.

This is a film reconstruction of one of the many battles of World War II, on the approaches to the fortress city.

Year of creation: 2019.
