The Last Frontier: The film tells the story of the Podolsk cadets’ heroic stand outside Moscow in October nineteen forty-one. Cadets from the Podolsk infantry and artillery
schools were sent to the Ilyinsky line of defense, fighting alongside units from the Soviet 43rd Army to hold back the German advance until reinforcements arrived. Hopelessly
outnumbered, young men in their teens laid down their lives in a battle lasting almost two weeks to obstruct the far superior German forces advancing towards Moscow. This
film is not only about war. It is also about love, true camaraderie, and the path from boyhood to manhood.
