The film is based on a historical incident, the massacre of a Komsomol special detachment during the Russian Civil War in Ukraine. In 1919, during Anton Denikin's offensive, the Komsomol forces faced the irregular troops of the Army of Independent Soviet Ukraine, led by the turncoat rebel Daniil Ilich Terpilo (known as Ataman Zelyony (Russian: Зелёный, literally "Green")).
Zelyony's men surrounded the Komsomol forces at the village of Trypillia in Ukraine south of Kiev, trapped them on the steep banks of the Dnieper River, and slaughtered them.
