Heroes of Shipka was the first solo effort for Soviet director Sergei Vasilyev, who had previously collaborated with his late brother Georgi. As head of the Leningrad Film Studios, Vasilyev was obliged to traffic in propaganda, but he never forgot how to make his material entertaining. The film is set in 1887 during the pivotal battle between the Russians and the Turks at the Shipka Pass. Stressing the solidarity of the Soviet states, tribute is paid to the courageous Bulgarian volunteers who helped the Russians fend off their mutual enemy. American critics were impressed by Heroes of Shipka, but felt that the film would have been twice as effective had it been lensed in Cinemascope rather than "standard aspect."

幕后花絮
这部影片是50年代中期苏联代表作品之一。通过一对夫妻之间关系与情感的变化，创作者触及了苏联电影过去很少涉及的有关人的尊严、人的信任、人的生活目的等方面的内容。这部影片和其它许多影片一样开始表现普通人的生活和工作，表现他们的喜怒哀乐，开始涉及道德范畴，开始探索人物的内心世界，特别是对女性的细致丰富的内心生活和精神世界进行了大胆的剖析。当然这些影片与后来道德题材作品相比，还不够深入。
