Far from Moscow

Far from Moscow (aka...Daleko ot Moskvy) is based on the eponymous book by Vasili Azhaev. The film is set in Russia in 1942 during WWII. The major oil pipeline construction is going on under heavy bombings by the Nazi Air-Force. The construction workers are exploited like prisoners of a labor camp. They work under dangerous conditions around-the-clock in order to deliver oil to the Armies on the front-line. The construction manager Batmanov resolves many problems.
