While set during World War II, Ballad of a Soldier is not primarily a war film. It recounts, within the context of the turmoil of war, various kinds of love: the romantic love of a young couple, the committed love of a married couple, and a mother's love of her child, as a Red Army soldier tries to make it home during a leave. On the way, he meets soldiers and civilians and also falls in love.

The film was produced at Mosfilm and won several awards, including the BAFTA Award for Best Film From Any Source, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.
