Beautiful big models! I'm interested to see this movie.
This studio has already produced one (also publicly-funded) war film - "The 28 Panfilovites".
Available in full
HERE, I find it to be almost flawless from technical and historical point of view,
albeit with a bit formulaic story (stereotypical undeveloped characters showing pictures of their girls/wives and similar cliches)
These guys are very dedicated to filming as much as possible with practical props and effects; so as long as they don't steer the story into a shallow romantic melodrama
(such as in 'Battle of Sevastopol' and many others), I think they'll be onto a winner.
