About the film. Translate into Russian.
Set in 1884 Sudan, this film adapted from the A.E.W. Mason novel follows a British officer who resigns his post right before his
regiment ships out to battle the rebels. Perceiving his resignation as cowardice, his friends and fiancée give him four white feathers,
the symbol of cowardice, but little do they know he's actually going undercover and plans to redeem his honor. Recently he finds a
way to get to his comrades’ place, travelling with a caravan of an Arabic smuggler, but as long as the black slaves in caravan set up a
riot, he finds himself crossing the desert alone, ready to collapse from exhaustion and dehydration. Rescued by a wandering African
tribesman who just happens to be passing by, Harry soon has himself made up to look Arabic so he can become a baggage porter for
his own ex-battalion. He plans to bide his time until an opportunity to rescue his accusers from certain death presents itself.

Review:
I really like that movie because the acting and the special effects were astounding! It brings one into the situation and keeps you
wondering what will happen next. The pictures were magnificent and helped to enter easily in the story. The cast is quite well chosen
with each one making you believe they are that character. Ignoring the fact that this story isn't 100% historically accurate, the script
was pretty good and the battle scenes were awesome! This is good for young and old and men and women. The girls will enjoy the
romance and the guys should enjoy the battle scenes. All will enjoy the test of the human spirit. It is a very interesting movie that I
recommend to people who need a cute story to relax and make you smile at the end.
