‘Bitter Harvest’ first-look poster and trailer (Video)

Check out the posters for the new movie, “Bitter Harvest.” The movie tells the story of two young lovers during the middle of Joseph Stalin’s genocidal policies against Ukraine in the 1930s. As Stalin advances the ambitions of the burgeoning Soviet Union, a young artist named Yuri (Max Irons) battles to survive famine, imprisonment, and torture to save his childhood sweetheart, Natalka,(Samantha Barks) from the “Holodomor,” the death-by-starvation program which ultimately killed millions of Ukrainians. Against this tragic backdrop, Yuri escapes from a Soviet prison and joins the anti-Bolshevik resistance movement as he battles to reunite with Natalka and continue the fight for a free Ukraine.

Filmed on location in Ukraine, it also stars Barry Pepper, Tamer Hassan and Terence Stamp.

Roadside Attractions will release the film in the U.S. on February 24, 2017.
