Olympus Inferno (2009)
Olympus Inferno (Russian Олимпиус Инферно) is a 2008 film about the Ossetia war and the first-ever feature film on this subject. It is in Russian, with some English and Georgian, however a lector reads over the English and Georgian lines in Russian. The film was let out later half a year after the conflict. The name of the film belongs to an invented species of a butterfly "Olympus Inferno" which is searched in South Ossetia by the American entomologist and the Russian journalist. The name "Olympus Inferno" was coined by director Igor Voloshin.
