1938 Flight of the Rodina
1938 Moscow: Marina Raskova, Valentina Grizodubova, and Paulina Ossipenko board their Soviet aircraft, the Rodina, to embark upon what many believe to be a suicide mission. Stalin wanted to prove to the world Soviet superiority. The three female pilots blaze new trails in the Siberian skies, a flight on par with Lindbergh's Atlantic crossing.
​
The Night Witches
Marina Raskova convinces Stalin to allow her to form the first all-women air combat regiment who serve as bomber and fighter pilots in WWII to help defend the Motherland against Hitler's surprise attack. These regiments include the elite Night Witches so dubbed by the German troops they attack.
