Very interesting faces. Acting is good. Atmosphere is credible. Not sure about the ideological background. Hard to identify with Nazis, even when they are defeated, tortured and raped.

German dramatization of an incendiary wartime diary published at the end of the Fifties by "Anonyma," an account of the Russian occupation after the fall of Berlin. Färberböck narrows his gaze, and ours, to a single neglected facet of the war: the ancient and abiding practice of mass rape as one of the unquestioned spoils of the conqueror, and the pragmatic survival methods of its victims.

"As quickly as possible, the initial, brutal encounters are concluded and the film is hurried along to its second, plot-heavy incarnation as a healing-and-reconciliation drama." - Ryan Stewart

Good. The plight of women in Germany after the fall of The Third Reich is portrayed in a capable manner in this period piece. What dooms this movie is the director's choice to take the apologetic route making the Russian actions look justified whether it be rape or senseless killing. Yevgeni Sidikhin is excellent as the conscientious Russian major as well as Irm Hermann, the main lead. Recommended.
