Ballad of a Solider is a 1959 war film directed by Grigori Chukhrai. During World War II, 19 year old soldier Alyosha gets a medal as a reward for a heroic act at the front. Instead of this medal he asks for a few days leave to visit his mother and repair the roof of their home. On the train eastwards he meets Shura who is on her way to her aunt. In those few days traveling together they fall in love.
Narrator[last line]: This is all we wanted say about our friend Alyosha as he squirts off, he might have become a wonderful man, he might have been a builder but he was and will be forever in our memories a solider, a heroic solider.
