This is a dramatized depiction of a very true and inspiring tale.  The tale is about who was arguably one of the 5 best snipers ever, no matter what uniform he, or she, wore.  The man this movie is mostly about, Vasily Zeitsev, was just an ordinary Soviet peasant until in June in of 1940, Hitler's German Army invaded the Soviet Union in Operation Barberossa.  Things were definitely looking bleak for the Red Army by the time the Germans reached Stalingrad.  But with the help of Vasily the sniper, and many, many more people like him, the German Army was defeated and forced onto the retreat.
