Ivan's Childhood (Russian: Ива́ново де́тство, Ivanovo detstvo), sometimes released as My Name Is Ivan in the US, is a 1962 Soviet film directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. It is based on the 1957 short story Ivan (Russian: Иван) by Vladimir Bogomolov, with the screenplay written by Mikhail Papava and an uncredited Andrei Tarkovsky. The film features child actor Nikolai Burlyayev, Valentin Zubkov, Yevgeni Zharikov, Stepan Krylov, Nikolai Grinko and Tarkovsky's wife Irma Raush.
The film tells the story of orphan boy Ivan and his experiences during World War II. Ivan's Childhood was one of several Soviet films of its period, such as The Cranes Are Flying and Ballad of a Soldier, that looked at the human cost of war and did not glorify the war experience as did films produced before the Khrushchev Thaw.
Ivan's Childhood was Tarkovsky's first feature film. It won him critical acclaim and made him internationally known. It won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival in 1962 and the Golden Gate Award at the San Francisco International Film Festival in 1962. The film was also selected as the Soviet entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 36th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee. Famous filmmakers such as Ingmar Bergman, Sergei Parajanov and Krzysztof Kieślowski praised the film and cited it as an influence on their work.

Plot: Philosophical parable "Eastern Corridor" was created during the decline of the "thaw", when Soviet artists were, though metered and censored, but still "a breath of freedom." As the film industry (as, indeed, and other production) in 1960s is entirely owned by the state, the question of commercial profit from the rental of films, although on the agenda, but was not completely dominant. There was a so-called state orders on important topics of state ideology, such as a revolutionary, military, historical, biographical, etc. It is logical that within the framework of military subjects were allowed not only action-picture type of spy ware detective but also films that were not originally designed for a mass audience, but significant for the annual "plan." Thus, there is no doubt that the "Eastern Corridor" was in the thematic focus of the studio "Belarus-film" based on usual partisan drum section telling about the heroism of Soviet people during the occupation. Eventually, the film was not the way it was waiting to see the boss, and was greeted with hostility not only to party officials, but quite liberal critics. So it is only surprising that after spending two years on the shelf, the film "Eastern Corridor" still left in the so-called "limited release" in 1968 ... This film could be the hit for any Western Festival of the late 1960s (as much a triumph as "The Cranes Are Flying" and "Ivan's Childhood."), but, alas ... After the "Eastern Corridor" creative life of Valentin Vinogradov obviously did not work. Outstanding directorial talent is not given to open, and he was forced to go to the "ordinary cinema"...
