| Summary |
This classic Sergei Eisenstein tale of 13th century Russia is a one-of-a-kind film of unequalled excellence. It is considered to be one of the greatest achievements of Soviet and world cinema artistry. The story centers around the tumultuous time when the Russians were invaded by Teutonic knights on one front and Tartars on the other. The morale of the Russian people was at its lowest ebb until a brave and extremely wise nobleman, Prince Nevsky (Nikolai Cherkassov), is summoned to lead his people in their fierce struggle against the oppressors. |
