Strength Test, the documentary about the Ural metallurgical sector workers that was made by order of ChTPZ Group, won the first prize in Metal-Vision 2008 (a contest on the best videos devoted to Russia and the CIS’s metallurgical enterprises held within the framework of Metall Expo).

To provide the necessary setting for the film, ChTPZ’s BOD Chairman Alexander Fedorov was replaced with a young headman for one day; what is more, the premises of the plant were visited by Governor of Chelyabinsk Region Petr Sumin.

The film’s opening night coincided with the Metallurgist’s Day when the documentary was broadcast on the regional TV channel. In addition, a DVD was released specially for the employees of enterprises which were used as the movie’s shooting fields. These are ChTPZ, MMK, and ChMK.

The judges of the contest (including TV presenters, actors and film experts) spoke very highly of the film’s idea and its implementation.
