For the participation in the film, a number of film actors and the cameraman were awarded the Stalin Prize in 1949.[1]
At the heart of the dramatic history are the real facts of the biography of the fighter pilot Alexey Maresyev.[2] Shot in battle over the occupied territory, he for three weeks made his way through the snow-covered forests until he got to the partisans. Having lost both legs, the hero subsequently shows an amazing strength of character, again sits at the helm of the aircraft and replenishes the account of air victories over the enemy.
