The Brest Fortress (Russian Title: Brestskaya Krepost/Брестская крепость) is a 2010 Russian/Belarusian World War II drama directed by Aleksandr Kott. The film tells about the heroic defense of the Brest Fortress, which had taken upon the first strike of Nazi troops on June 22 1941. The Brest Fortress has become one of the great symbols of the Soviet resistance in World War 2.
Some German soldiers carry real MG34 Machine Guns, though they are never shown being fired. This was probaly due to a lack of sufficent 7.92x57 blanks or belts, as the weapon is never seen loaded Some Soviet troops also use captured MG34s
The defenders of the Brest fortress used several Maxim machine guns in this movie. Some Maxim machine guns have the large filler cap on the top of the water jacket. In actually this version of the machine gun appeared at the end of 1941.
Messerschmitt Bf.109 shoots from an automatic cannon at Polikarpov I-16 during air combat. This gun has a low rate of fire like as MK 103. But this weapon was appeared on Bf.109 only in 1944. Also Bf.109 has two cannons in the nose in this movie. I guess it is fictional version of the Messerschmitt Bf.109 fighter.
