She's not waiting for anyone. The one she used to wait for, her son Alyosha, did not return from the war. He is buried far from his birthplace, near a town with a foreign name. Strangers bring flowers to his grave. They call him a Russian soldier, a hero, a liberator. But to her he was simply her son, about whom she knew everything from the day he was born to the day he left along this road for the front. He was our friend. We will tell his story, a story not everyone knows—not even her, his mother. Баллада о солдате (Ballad of a Soldier) 1959 | dir. Grigory Chukhray
