一个改变历史的女人的故事

    和男人们相恋，这些男人又在敌军毁灭性的炮火下丧生；和埃莉诺•罗斯福成为朋友；在一场影响二战结局的大会上做了里程碑式的演说；不断抗争，为了生存和爱——一个脆弱的女人能应对这一切吗？这是柳德米拉•帕夫里琴科的真实故事，她是传奇的苏联女狙击手。士兵们带着她的名字投入战斗。而敌人都在追杀她。她在战场上见到了死亡和折磨，但对她来说最艰难的考验是爱情，而这爱情会被战争夺走……

影片创作经过

    乌克兰电影委员会于2012年，首次有了拍摄一部柳德米拉•帕夫里琴科传记电影的想法，随后由叶卡捷琳娜•科皮洛瓦负责这个项目。本项目描述了两个国家近代史中一个宏大的时期，需要将两个国家都联合起来参与拍摄。双方制片方都被这个真实的故事吸引，于是摄制工作开始了。2012年，叶戈尔•奥列索夫负责的基诺罗博公司（乌克兰）和纳塔利娅•莫克里茨卡亚负责的新人民公司（俄罗斯）决定批准本电影项目。

    实际摄制工作始于2013年。本片由俄罗斯文化部和乌克兰电影委员会出资。项目预算为500万美元。

    拍摄工作于2013年秋开始，持续到2014年7月25日。拍摄地点包括塞瓦斯托波尔、巴拉克拉瓦、基辅、敖德萨、卡缅涅茨-波多利斯基。

导演：谢尔盖•莫克里茨克：

    1991年毕业于俄罗斯格拉西莫夫电影学院，所学专业是摄影指导。为多个剧情片、纪录片担任摄影指导。他导演的剧情片包括：《四个年代的爱》（2008）、《教师日》（2012）、《女狙击手》（2015）。

导演阐述：

    对我来说，《女狙击手》不仅仅是一部战争片。当然，片中有许多关于战斗、爆炸、飞机坠落和大规模潜艇群的场景。但我的主要目的是拍一部关于人的片子，一个非常坚强的人。同时也是一部关于爱的电影。

    尽管战争严重破坏了影片主角的人生，但讽刺的是，也使她更有活着的感觉，使她能更强烈地表达自己的感情。

    本片取材于真实事件，向我们展示了真实的战争英雄。我研究了档案资料，并咨询了历史学家，他们向我详细叙述了柳德米拉•帕夫里琴科的人生，告诉我敖德萨和塞瓦斯托波尔在那个历史时期的情况。我们意识到，我们在剧本中其实不需要太多的创作。生活本身已经为我们提供了非常棒的剧本。

    我们在征集演员方面花了很多时间，试图寻找一位年轻女演员来扮演柳德米拉。尤利娅•佩里希尔德的表演立刻就让我印象深刻。我甚至都没注意到她在我们遴选演员期间已怀孕6个月，还请她拿着一把重型来复枪，做一些身体动作。她就是柳德米拉。

    这部电影实际上分三部分。包括“肮脏的”战争部分，色调几乎是黑白；非常混乱和多彩的战后场景；以及和平时期美国的明朗场景。

    当然，我应该说一下拍摄现场的氛围。我们的团队是完全国际化的——团队成员包括俄罗斯人、乌克兰人、立陶宛人、波兰人、犹太人……尽管在俄罗斯和乌克兰关系复杂化的时期，但我们能简单地将政治排除在谈话之外。对我来说极其重要的是，我们团队内的关系，成为了一种我们国家间关系的原型范例——既亲切又充满创造力。

    有个政府官员问我：“你的电影讲的是什么战争——二战还是苏联卫国战争？”关于这场战争的名称，政治家和历史学家之间一直存在着许多争论。

    我的立场非常清晰。我的名字是谢尔盖。我的名字是纪念我叔叔，他死于1945年5月8日。我觉得对于这个问题没有答案：他所葬身的那场战争究竟是二战还是苏联卫国战争。

    在我们这部影片中，我们探讨的话题超越了这些政治争论。一个年轻女孩应该参战吗？你会在杀了人之后还能做一个正常人吗？对我来说，这部电影是我们双方历史的一部分，将我们联系在一起，让我们化解仇怨。

 

BATTLE OF SEVASTOPOL

Russia-Ukraine, 2015

Directed by: Sergei Mokritsky

Director of Photography: Yuri Korol

Music: Eugene Galperine

Story of a woman who changed the course of history

Falling in love with men who perished in devastating enemy fire, befriending Eleanor Roosevelt, delivering a landmark speech at a conference that influenced the outcome of World War II, constantly fighting in order to live and to love - can a fragile woman handle all this?

This is the true story of Ludmila Pavlichenko, a legendary Soviet woman sniper. Soldiers went into combat carrying her name. Enemies hunted her. She saw death and suffering on the battlefield, but her hardest test was love, which war could take away from her…

How the Project Came to Life:

The idea to film a biopic of Ludmila Pavlichenko was originally conceived by the Cinema Committee of Ukraine in 2012, then headed by Ekaterina Kopylova. The project had to unite two countries in this depiction of a large-scale excerpt of their mutual recent history. Producers on both sides were equally fascinated by this true story, and the work began. The decision to green light the project was made in December 2012 by Kinorob (Ukraine) headed by Egor Olesov and New People (Russia) headed by Natalia Mokritskaya.

Actual production began in 2013. The film was funded by Ministry of Culture of Russia and Ukranian Cinema Committee. The budget is 5 Million US$.

Shooting began in Fall of 2013 and lasted until July 25th, 2014. It took place in Sevastopol, Balaklava, Kiev, Odessa, Kamenets-Podolsky.

Sergei Mokritsky, director:

Graduated as director of photography from Russian State Institute of Cinematography in 1991. Worked on multiple feature and documentary films as director of photography. Feature films, made as director, include: “Four Ages of Love” (2008), “Day of the Teacher” (2012), “Battle of Sevastopol” (2015).

Director’s Statement:

For me “Battle of Sevastopol” is not only a film about war. Of course, there are plenty of visual scenes with combats, explosions, falling planes, and massive submarines. However, my main goal was to make a film about a human being. A very strong human being. And about love.

Although war severely wounded our protagonist’s life, it also, ironically, helped her feel more alive and helped her manifest her feelings stronger.

The film is based on true events and it shows us real war heroes. After studying the archives and consulting with historians who told us in details about the life of Ludmila Pavlichenko and that historical period in Odessa and Sevastopol, we realized that we don’t need to invent much in the script. Life itself has written a fascinating script for us.

We had an extensive casting period when we tried to find a young actress who would play Ludmila. I was impressed at once by Yulia Perisild’s performance. I did not even notice that she was 6 months pregnant during casting, and asked her to carry a heavy rifle and perform physical exercises. She was Ludmila.

Visually the film is divided into three parts. The “dirty” war, which looks almost black-and-white, a very chaotic and colorful image of pre-war scenes and glossy image of peaceful United States.

I should, of course, mention the atmosphere on set. Our team was purely international – we had Russians, Ukranians, Lithuanians, Polish, Jewish… Despite the complicated period in the relationship between Russia and Ukraine, we simply excluded politics from all our conversations. It was extremely important to me that the relationship within our team became a sample prototype for the relationship between our countries – amicable and productive.

One government official asked me: “What war is your movie about – World War II or the Great Patriotic War?” There is a lot of ongoing debate between politicians and historians about these two titles.

My position is very clear. My name is Sergei. I was named in honour of my uncle who died on May 8th, 1945. I don't think there is an answer to the question, in which war he perished – World War II or Great Patriotic War.

In our film we discuss topics which are above these political debates. Should a young girl be at war? Can you kill a human being and remain a human being yourself? For me this film is part of our mutual history, which bonds us together and restricts us from becoming enemies.
