Red Square (Russian: Красная площадь, romanized: Krasnaya ploshchad) is a 1970 Soviet war drama film directed by Vasili Ordynsky.
In the second part Amelin becomes the commissioner of the division, led by former Tsarist officer Kutasov, who plans to organize an imitation of the blow of one unit, which will distract the White Guards.
[4] In 1918, Dmitry Amelin, a commissar of the All-Russian Collegium tasked with forming the Red Army, is sent to the 38th Grenadier Regiment, which has abandoned its position.
With the help of Lieutenant Nikolai Kutasov, a skilled officer, he manages to transform the regiment into a battle-ready unit capable of resisting German forces.
After the battle, the regiment joins the Red Army in full—except for Kutasov, who, while not opposed to Soviet power, foresees a brutal civil war and refuses to take part.
In the film's epilogue, Colonel General Kutasov visits Red Square, where Amelin's ashes are interred in the Kremlin Wall.
