Historical Victory Parade on June 24, 1945. Full version. The POBEDA TV channel, part of Channel One's Digital TV Family, presents the full version of the 1945 Victory Parade. Together with the Russian State Archive of Film and Photo Documents the editorial team did a unique job. Frame by frame the entire newsreel of the celebratory day of June 24, 1945 - from the early morning hours to the evening fireworks. A lot of new authentic information from archives was added to the programme and the logic and sequence of actions was restored.
All the film footage made during the legendary Parade was found and digitised: they turned out to be about 1,500 meters long! About 72 cameramen worked on the Red Square that day, and only a small part of the footage they had filmed ended up in the now widely known documentary. The rest lay in special storage for years. Now they have been able to reconstruct the whole picture of what was happening on Red Square and around it.

Until now, the world had seen either a 50-minute version, or a short 18-minute colour documentary. We have been able to put together almost three hours, minute by minute. This is a fantastic opportunity to experience the real atmosphere that reigned then, to see unedited", says one of the authors of the project, TV presenter, general producer of Channel One.

PRECIS:
The first Victory Parade took place on the Red Square in Moscow on June 24, 1945. It was the triumph of the victorious people, who liberated not only their lands from invaders, but the whole of Europe.
The participants of the first Victory Parade were front-line soldiers. Usually units come out that march beautifully, and they are ready to march in line, striking everyone with coherence. But in 1945, 10 military regiments of the Red Army and a regiment of the Navy were consolidated and entered the Red Square.
