About The Failure of Operation Big Dipper
The film takes place in the post-war years on the territory of Western Ukraine. A gang of Ren settled in one of the Carpathian villages. With her help, the leaders of the Ukrainian nationalists in Munich want to get the lists of Hitler's agents left behind during the retreat of the fascists.
Directed by Anatolii Bukovskyi, The Failure of Operation Big Dipper leans on a strong ensemble — Nina Antonova, Alexandr Denisenko, Kostiantyn Stepankov — 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 1983.
