Dzhalma

1929 · 0h 50m · Drama

Skip it. This obscure Soviet-era drama about cross-cultural romance during the Russian Civil War sounds historically interesting in theory, but without any critical backing or cast recognition to vouch for it, you're gambling on a film that's likely been forgotten for good reason. There are better-crafted period dramas out there demanding your attention tonight.

Plot

In the Caucasus, among the picturesque mountains there is a guerrilla war between the Whites from Bicherakhov’s division and the Red Army soldiers. The Chechen girl Dzhalma finds an injured Ukrainian guy Mykola in a valley. She saves his life and helps him to recover. Young people fall in love with each other, and after the Bolshevik’s victory both of them travel to Ukraine. Dzhalma ends up in a traditional Ukrainian village.
