Winner of 13 prestigious awards around the globe—including five Russian Academy Awards (Nika Awards) for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Sound and Best Screenplay—veteran director Dmitri Meskhiyev's Our Own is an unforgettable and emotional story about heroism, sacrifice and patriotism. It is 1941, World War II, and the Germans have been in Russia for a year. Three
prisoners—an officer, a politician and a sniper—will escape from German detention and flee to a small village where they hope to take refuge. But one of the men has been collaborating with the Germans, and he must soon face a dire choice. Nothing is certain, no one safe. A riveting film experience, with a highly unique and astonishing visual style, Our Own may sometimes shock in its depiction of war, yet the result is a masterpiece of filmmaking that one will find impossible to turn away from.
