Ballad of a Soldier (Ballada o soldate)
Film Poster
Ballad of a Soldier (Ballada o soldate ) is a 1959 Soviet World War II drama directed by Grigori Chukhrai. A young soldier Alyosha Skvortsov (Vladimir Ivashov ) made a heroic act - destroyed two enemy tanks. A command decided to reward him. Alyosha asked for a few days of vacation to visit his mother.
