Dear Seelangers - I would very much like to know if you do find this. A lot
of disabled veterans from Leningrad were moved to Valaam Island on Lake
Ladoga; all info on the place gratefully accepted - Anna Reid.

Has anybody seen or heard about a Russian documentary made in the late 1980s
during glasnost about a sanitarium of WWII veterans, most of whom were
severely damaged, for example, having no arms and legs at all, and who were
separated from society not to upset others with their appearances and had to
live on an island, I think one of Solovetzkie ostrova. The title may even
refer to Solovetzkie ostrova.

It is not by Goldovskaya, but similar in style. I saw it years ago, and now
cannot find any reference to it or recall the title.

Anybody has seem it?

Thank you,

Lily Alexander
