Father of a Soldier
A soldier by duty, a father by love.
A poignant wartime drama about a father's desperate search for his son, exploring duty, love, and sacrifice against the backdrop of WWII.
When peasant Georgy Makharashvili hears that his soldier son is lying wounded in a hospital, he sets out to visit him. However, unknown to him, his son has been sent back to the front. Reluctant to return home and in a vain attempt to locate his boy, Georgy joins the Red Army in it's unrelenting push to the west.
