Studio is in the Firing Square

In 1933, the Technofilm film studio was located on Melnichnaya Street in house number four, which has been known as Lennauchfilm for 80 years of its creative activity. It had another name, Leningrad United Film Studio, which it received on March 30, 1942. It was then, in the square of the shelling on Melnichnaya Street, the cinematographers of the Leningrad United Film Studio were able to realize the great idea – to capture the whole truth about the blockade. In the spring of 1942, the footage of the defending city formed into the film "Leningrad in the Struggle", which showed the world an unprecedented tragedy in the history of mankind and the unparalleled steadfastness and heroism of the city-front.
