Aleksandr Remez

A dramatic legend about the poet Mikhail Svetlov, based on the stage composition by A. Remez and P. Shtein, directed by the Moscow Theater of the Lenin Komsomol.

In August 1799, Russian troops under the command of A.V. Suvorov, having defeated the French in northern Italy, received an unexpected order. Instead of marching on Paris, they are ordered to go to the remote Swiss Alps, where there is a powerful and countless French army.
