"Narkomovskiy" Train (Narkomovskiy oboz)

Narkomovskiy oboz is a Russian 2011 war mini-series directed by Vlad Furman. In November 1941 Starshina (Sgt.Maj.) Viktor Filippov (Sergey Makhovikov) gets a task to deliver to frontline troops a supply train, loaded with vodka. His team consists of four young female soldiers and two civilian coachmen, an old man and a boy. During the way to frontline they have many encounters, including the final battle against a German unit that not all of them survived.
Note: the movie hasn't any official title in English so the original title is translated and need some clarification. "Narkomovskiy" literally means "something that belongs to Narkom" (a short for Narodny Komissar, "People's Commissar", an analog of minister in USSR at that time). But Red Army military slang used "narkomovskiy" in a figurative sense, as a name for vodka rations that were introduced by the order of Narkom Oborony (People's Commissar of Defence) Voroshilov. So this word in the title doesn't need a literal translation.
