A Russian military propaganda film about the tank commander Kalashnikov, severely injured in battle in 1941. The accident leaves him incapacitated and unable to return to the front line. While recovering in the hospital, he begins creating the initial sketches of what will become one of the world's most legendary weapons. A self-taught inventor is only 29 when he develops the now iconic assault riffle - the AK-47. Shot in occupied Crimea.
