About SVOi. A Ballad of War
Summer 2022. A group of our volunteers — drone reconnaissance operators — led by an officer with the call sign "Moscow" arrives for a rotation in a small village somewhere in the Zaporizhzhia region, practically on the front line. There, they establish contact with a local family who refused to abandon their home. Despite forecasts from command — which considers this direction secondary and expects the enemy's main assault elsewhere — the enemy launches a breakthrough here, at dawn. "Moscow's" group must carry out their combat mission, with almost no chance of making it out alive.
Directed by Artem Artemov, SVOi. A Ballad of War leans on a strong ensemble — Konstantin Demidov, Sergey Makhovikov, Larisa Shakhvorostova — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about war titles of 2025.
