Women and Martyrdom in Stalinist War Cinema
This book challenges the idea of the compatibility of femininity and combat under Stalinism. It reveals how Stalinist war cinema drew on Russian religious tradition to create cinematic representations of Soviet women during WWII, serving collective identity-construction policies.
