Stalingrad is the first Russian movie made completely in 3D IMAX and the first non-North American film in the IMAX format. However, it is not the first 3D movie to come out of Russian territory. The honor goes to "Concert" produced in 1940-1941 in USSR, directed by Alexander Andrievsky, and released on February 4th, 1941.
The house in the movie is based on the legendary Pavlov's House in Stalingrad and its history.
The set built near St. Petersburg was meant to reproduce every detail of Stalingrad's heroic image. The construction of the set took six months, involved over 400 people and cost around 4 million dollars.
Official submission of Russia to the Oscars 2014 best foreign language film category.
The original script by Ilya Tilkin has no literary source. Tilkin studied museum archives as well as the diaries of the Stalingrad Battle participants to write the script. Some parts of Vasiliy Grossman's "Life and Fate" were used for a few scenes.
