The Ascent (Russian: Восхождение, tr. Voskhozhdeniye) is a 1977 Soviet drama film directed by Larisa Shepitko and made at Mosfilm. Shepitko and Yuri Klepikov's screenplay was adapted from the 1970 novel Sotnikov by Vasil Bykaŭ. The film was shot in black-and-white in January 1974 near Murom, Russia, in appalling winter conditions.
Shepitko also employs grand landscape shots and the use of negative space to emphasize the isolation faced by her characters. Examples of this can be seen in The Ascent where two soldiers struggle to survive in the middle of a snowstorm, and in Wings where an ex-war pilot flies alone, illustrating her disconnect from modern society.
