莫斯科戰役
The film was a sequel to Ozerov's 1985 "Battle of Moscow", with its plot starting directly in the beginning of the former, after von Bock failed to capture Moscow. In general, "Stalingrad" was Ozerov's fourth work dealing with the Soviet-German War, after the 1970–71 series "Liberation", the 1977 TV mini-series "Soldiers of Freedom" and "Battle of Moscow".
