During the battle for the town a machine gun is used by German soldiers. It appears to be a [[Maxim MG08]], fitted with a bipod, possibly in order to resemble an [[MG08/15]] (the bipod is placed too close to muzzle end for a genuine MG08/15).

It consists of two segments, both of which take place in Summer 1942 on the Black Sea coast. In the first segment "Tri gvardeytsa" ("Three soldiers of Guard unit") a small group of Soviet soldiers is sent on commando mission in a German-occupied coastal town. The second segment, "Propavshiy bez vesti" ("Missing in action") depicts the adventures of the crew of Soviet motor torpedo boat that appears without fuel near the lighthouse that is now manned by Germans.
