Overview:

A tribute to Soviet cameraman Vladimir Sushchinsky, killed in the liberation of Breslau in 1945, featuring his funeral and final footage by fallen colleagues. The film honors the 252 front-line cameramen of the Central Documentary Film Studio, one in five of whom died while recording the war, leaving behind millions of meters of film and hundreds of newsreels as a lasting record of the conflict.
