In the history of Leningrad during the siege, there is a page dedicated to the female mountain climbers who in 1941 covered the city's golden domes so that the enemy could not use the high-rise buildings for aimed fire. A "skirt" was sewn for the Admiralty to cover its top from the enemy. The girls worked, forgetting about fatigue, despite hunger and cold, at the cost of their lives they hid monuments and all the city's residents from destruction. This film is dedicated to their memory and their feat
