Synopsis
Bayazet (2003) is a war drama based on Valentin Pikul's novel, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Andrei Chernykh and Nikolai Stambula filmed one of the most desperate sieges of the late 1800s.
The Caucasus, toward the end of the 1870s. A small Russian garrison is sealed inside a mountain fortress and holds out for nearly a month without water or relief. Lieutenant Colonel Patsevich commands; among the defenders is an officer played by Alexei Serebryakov, with Olga Budina and Viktor Solovyov beside him. Heat, blood, festering wounds — and through all of it something forbidden flares up: an officer's feelings for the commandant's wife. A love that has no business in a besieged fort, which is exactly why it burns harder.
For readers of Pikul and anyone who likes hard-edged cinema about duty, endurance and the price of an oath. Press play on Bayazet (2003) online on iFILM.
