Description	August Eighth (, translit. Avgust. Vosʹmogo) is a 2012 Russian action drama film about the 2008 South Ossetia war. This is the third film on this theme.The film tells the story of a young, single mother who is compelled to make her way, at risk of her life, to South Ossetia where her son is. She had sent him there on the eve of the conflict.

The film was recognized as a socially important project and was filmed at the expense of the Russian State Fund for Social and Economic Support of national cinematography.The distributor of the film is Twentieth Century Fox CIS — a Russian distributor of 20th Century Fox. The Russian premiere took place on February 21, 2012 in theaters and on November 4th of the same year on TV on Channel One. Dzhanik Fayziev dedicated this film to all women in his life who took part in his upbringing.
