In the autumn of 1941, at the Ilyinsky line, young cadets of the Podolsk infantry and artillery schools held back the greater German forces. For twelve days, they were a barrier on the enemy's way to Moscow.

Screenings in different formats were held in Azerbaijan, North Macedonia, Singapore, Great Britain, Germany, Argentina, Armenia, Greece, Denmark, Serbia, Moldova, China, Argentina, Luxembourg, France, Bulgaria, Tanzania, Israel, Laos, Slovakia and Turkmenistan.

Materials about the defence of Moscow are available in the electronic collection of the Presidential Library Memory of the Great Victory. It includes official documents, photographs and newsreels, wartime newspapers, books, propaganda publications, collections of articles, biographies, testimonies of war participants and rare workers, private papers and much more.
