Ivan's Childhood
Ivan's Childhood, sometimes released as My Name Is Ivan in the US, is a 1962 Soviet war drama film directed by Andrei Tarkovsky( his first feature film) and co-written by Mikhail Papava and an uncredited Tarkovsky, based on Vladimir Bogomolov's 1957 short story" Ivan".
The film features child actor Nikolai Burlyayev along with Valentin Zubkov, Evgeny Zharikov, Stepan Krylov, Nikolai Grinko, and Tarkovsky's wife Irma Raush.
" Ivan's Childhood" tells the story of orphaned boy Ivan, whose parents were killed by the invading German forces, and his experiences during World War II.
" Ivan's Childhood" was one of several Soviet films of its period, such as" The Cranes Are Flying" and" Ballad of a Soldier", that looked at the human cost of war and did not glorify the war experience as did films produced before the Khrushchev Thaw.
In a 1962 interview, Tarkovsky stated that in making the film he wanted to" convey all[ his] hatred of war", and that he chose childhood" because it is what contrasts most with war."
" Ivan's Childhood" was Tarkovsky's first feature film.
It won him critical acclaim and made him internationally known.
It won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival in 1962 and the Golden Gate Award at the San Francisco International Film Festival in 1962.
The film was also selected as the Soviet entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 36th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.
Famous filmmakers such as Ingmar Bergman, Sergei Parajanov and Krzysztof Kieślowski praised the film and cited it as an influence on their work.

Andrei Tarkovsky
Andrei Arsenyevich Tarkovsky (4 April 1932 – 29 December 1986) was a Russian filmmaker, writer, and film theorist.
He is widely considered one of the greatest directors in the history of cinema, and one of Russia's most influential filmmakers.
His films explored spiritual and metaphysical themes, and are noted for their slow pacing and long takes, dreamlike visual imagery, and preoccupation with nature and memory.
Tarkovsky studied film at Moscow's State Institute of Cinematography under filmmaker Mikhail Romm, and subsequently directed his first five feature films in the Soviet Union: "Ivan's Childhood" (1962), "Andrei Rublev" (1966), "Solaris" (1972), "Mirror" (1975), and "Stalker" (1979).
After years of creative conflict with Soviet authorities, Tarkovsky left the country in 1979 and made his final two films abroad; "Nostalghia" (1983) and "The Sacrifice" (1986) were produced in Italy and Sweden respectively.
In 1986, he also published a book about cinema and art entitled "Sculpting in Time".
He died of cancer later that year.
Tarkovsky was the recipient of several awards at the Cannes Film Festival throughout his career (including the FIPRESCI prize, the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, and the Grand Prix Spécial du Jury) and winner of the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival for his debut film "Ivan's Childhood".
In 1990, he was posthumously awarded the Soviet Union's prestigious Lenin Prize.
Three of his films—"Andrei RublevMirror", and "Stalker"—featured in "Sight & Sound"’s 2012 poll of the 50 greatest films of all time.
