If you want to see an award-winning Russian movie, mark your calendars for Sunday, June 27, when the Shorefront YM-YWHA will screen *The Cranes are Flying*. The movie, set in the U.S.S.R. during World War II, was the only Russian film that won the Palm D’Or award at Cannes.

Directed by Mikhail Kalatozov, *The Cranes are Flying* (*Letyat Zhuravli*) gives us a realistic look at the impact of war while intertwining themes of loss and love. The movie is not a typical Soviet Union propaganda piece. It is said to take you into the minds of regular people who had to deal with the harsh reality and consequences of the war.

*The Cranes are Flying* is being presented as part of the “Memories From Our Hearts” series. **The movie will be shown with English subtitles** so that non-Russian speakers may also enjoy it. **The presentation will begin at 6 p.m. The Shorefront YM-YWHA is located at 3300 Coney Island Avenue.**

This is a free event.

**Tickets are $8 for non-members, $7 for members, seniors and students.**
