Description：In 1941, during the raging of World War II, the German Nazis invaded the Soviet Union. After a four-month-long battle to capture Leningrad without success, Hitler decided to use hunger and siege to capture Leningrad. The Nazis besieged the city for three years, and Leningrad, with corpses everywhere, became a city of death. British female reporter Kate Davis (Mira Sorvino) was separated from her lover, American reporter Philip Parker (Gabriel Byrne) while interviewing on the front line and was trapped in Leningrad. Kate, who was isolated and helpless, was fortunately helped and sheltered by Nina (Olga Sutulova), a female police officer of the Leningrad Volunteer Army. The two persevered in the flames of war in the ice and snow, and together with the Soviet soldiers and civilians who were suffering from hunger, they struggled to survive.
