Catalogue information
In 1987, the war in Afghanistan is drawing to a close, but for the boys of the 9th company, hell has yet to begin. Gentle Vorobyev, artist Gioconda, young father Stas, and others, under the guidance of the hard-hearted drill sergeant Dygalo, are transformed into brutal fighting machines during their brutal training in the Fergana Valley in Uzbekistan. They also become friends, but once in Afghanistan that friendship is put to the test when they find themselves in one of the most bloody battles between the Russian army and the Taliban. 9th Company is one of the greatest blockbusters in Russian film history, a sensational war film that can easily withstand the comparison with Platoon, Full Metal Jacket and Black Hawk Down.
