Virgo V The Height or Vysota is a 1957 Soviet romantic drama film produced at Mosfilm and directed by Aleksander Zarkhi after the novel of the same name written by Evgeny Vorobyov. It stars Nikolai Rybnikov and Inna Makarova. Tensions rise when site manager Igor Deryabin orders work to continue during severe weather. Tension brews when their supervisor's negligence interferes with the construction process and results in life threatening situations for the workers. To achieve maximum authenticity and realism, the stars themselves refused stunt stand-ins. Climbing on ladders and catwalks to heights of 40-60 meters. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/02/25 Full Review Read all reviews
