In addition to my previous message on Nagibin, I would like to say that
Nagibin's story is included in his book "Terpenie".
The Valaam clinic (internat) for disabled people/war veterans and survivors of
the siege of Leningrad who developed mental problems was open in 1945 and
closed in 1985. 
I think that Kirill Nabutov's 2-part documentary film "Blokada Leningrada" has
some references to Valaam. It was shown on NTV in 2004. (Nabutov also made a
documentary film about the Finnish war.)

All best,
