In November, at the very beginning of the terrible winter of 1941, when the blockade ring closes around Leningrad, a group of young iceboat athletes goes out onto the thin, not yet formed ice. The mission to deliver ammunition turns into an operation to save orphans from an orphanage who were not evacuated in time. Former rivals in regatta sports must now turn into a real united team in order to survive themselves and give hope to everyone else.

Angels of War is a 2026 Russian war drama film directed by Alexander Kott, it tells the story of the heroic deeds of iceboat sailors during the Siege of Leningrad. In November 1941, the heroes evacuate children across the thin ice of Lake Ladoga. The film stars Tikhon Zhiznevsky, Roman Evdokimov, Viktor Dobronravov, and Kseniya Treyster.

Production

The film is based on the true story of a military iceboat squad.

The Masterskaya Film Company received support from the state-run Cinema Fund twice for its work on the Angels of War project, along with other organizations that announced they were producing feature films but were "not leaders in domestic film production". The Cinema Fund announced its support for the project in September 2023 and July 2024 (with additional funding).

In 2024, the production of the film, along with nine other film projects, was also supported by the St. Petersburg Committee for Culture.

In total, Angels of War received government support totaling 225 million rubles.

In preparing the film, its creators visited museums and archives, read literature, and met with veteran iceboaters who sailed the same type of iceboats used during the Great Patriotic War. Modern-day iceboaters—athletes from St. Petersburg—served as consultants for the film. With their assistance and based on the materials they studied, the film crew built a complete replica of a 1940s iceboat.
