100 Days Before the Command (Russian: Сто дней до приказа, translit. Sto dney do prikaza) is a 1990 drama film by Hussein Erkenov.

Plot

Made in the final months of the Soviet Union, the film follows three young Red Army recruits, Zyrin, Belikov and Elin. The film has no narrative structure and rather than telling a story uses vignettes to show the conditions in which Soviet army recruits lived.[1]

Cast

The author's reaction

Yuri Polyakov said the movie was bad, but he begged the director to give him the movie DVD when traveling abroad, to lecture at US universities.
