Niels Anderson was a Russian director and screenwriter famous for his novels and films. The following is the story behind him: Ostrovsky joined the Russian Revolutionary Movement in 1912 and participated in the October Revolution. During the revolution, he left Russia and went to Kyiv in Ukraine. There, he joined the Red Army and was wounded in the war. In the Soviet Union, Ostrovsky began his own work, which reflected the real situation of war and revolution. His first novel, How Steel Was Tempered, was first published in 1924 and quickly became a popular literary work, winning a literary award from the Soviet government. However, Ostrovsky's life did not become easier and happier because of his works. In the 1930s, he began to suffer physical and mental torture. His physical condition gradually deteriorated and he fell into depression and anxiety. His works were also censored and restricted, which greatly restricted his creation. Despite this, Ostrovsky continued to write and won the Soviet Union's Nobel Prize in Literature in 1956. His work was still widely read and adapted into a classic literary work.
