Нескорений (2000) : distribution, intrigue et streaming

Released in 2000, Нескорений is a drame and guerre film directed by Oles Yanchuk, running about 104 minutes. “Heroes never die...” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. In 1950, long after the world has finished fighting World War II, a fight continues behind the newly drawn Iron Curtain: as the Ukrainians keep fighting both Nazi and Soviet abuses, General Roman Shukhevych (Hryhoriy Hladiy) is forced by brutal circumstances and his own sense of honor and duty to lead this effort as an underground war. As portrayed by the film, Shukhevych is a genteel family man who is also a complex character (revolted by ethnic discrimination, a music lover and a military genius) that with his charisma fuels his countrymen with desire for freedom. In the end, Shukhevych's efforts are unable to defeat the Soviets despite paying for his resistance with his life, but they re-enforce Ukrainian patriotism as an underground force until Ukraine finally recovers its freedom from Soviet tyranny.

Who’s in it. Нескорений stars Gregory Hlady as Roman Shukhevych, Borys Heorhiyevskyi as Smersh Soldier and Olha Kohut.
