Rating: C- --
This is a shameful piece of history that deserves a far better film.

Almost inevitably, approaching the Holodomor via a standard-length dramatic feature risks reducing the cataclysm's enormity to a trivializing size and emotional impact.

Ambitious if ultimately misfiring.

It's not Zhivago. The big picture is drawn a little too hastily for that. But it is a rousing tale with political pertinence, given the current state of relations between Russia and the Ukraine.

Clearly a deeply felt film whose producers' mission is to cast a spotlight on a hidden Ukrainian tragedy, Bitter Harvest has difficulty living up to the powerful tragic sweep of its subject.

Despite the fact that it was a genocide that claimed millions of lives, the Holodomor is not particularly well known. Bitter Harvest is not the film to bring attention to it.

In 1930s Ukraine, young lovers Yuri (Max Irons) and Natalka (Samantha Barks) struggle to survive a widespread famine known as the Holodomor, which was engineered by the Soviet Union in order to crush Ukrainian nationalism. In time, Yuri's horror over the scale of the tragedy inspires him to fight for Ukraine's independence. Barry Pepper, Tamer Hassan, and Terence Stamp co-star in this historical drama from director George Mendeluk.
