About Galya
During the "Winter War" between Finland and the USSR, Galya's father goes to the front and she's left behind to take care of grandma and the house. Despite toeing the party line, the film was still banned by censors for being insufficiently patriotic.
Directed by Nadezhda Kosheverova, Galya leans on a strong ensemble — Yevgeniya Vdovina, Pyotr Kirillov, Mariya Barabanova — 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 drama titles of 1940.
