Dozhit do rassveta is a 1975 Soviet war film directed by Viktor Sokolov and Mikhail Yershov. The movie was never released with an English title (however the translation of the Russian title is To Survive Until Dawn).

The commando group of the Soviet Army lead by Lt. Ivanovsky (Aleksandr Mikhajlov) is sent in the German rear in order to find and destroy the ammunition depot. But their mission went wrong from the start...

Most of the story takes place in night so many screenshots are dark.
