9 POTA 9 ROTA 9th Company [DVDRip Xvid Ac3 Rus sub Eng]

Russia has picked Fyodor Bondarchuk’s 9-ya rota / The 9th Company, the story of an army unit sent to Afghanistan to fight mujahadeen guerrillas. Made with a budget of US$9 million, 9-ya rota became a major box-office hit in its home country. Sergei Bodrov’s Kavkazskiy plennik / Prisoner of the Mountains, another Russian film depicting another of Russia’s deadly war follies (the war against Muslim rebels — read Chechens and associates — in the Caucasus region) was nominated for the Best Foreign-Language Film Oscar in 1996.



Fyodor, by the way, is the son of Sergei Bondarchuk, whose lengthy adaptation of Tolstoy’s War and Peace (1965-67) is considered one of the masterworks of Russian cinema.
