There are actually at least four major (named) female characters in this film, although none of their scenes overlap.

The only scene in which two female characters directly interact is a short confrontation between Masha and an un-named older woman. Masha has been raped by a Nazi officer. The woman calls her a slut and a collaborator, and spits on her. Lovely.

It may fail the Bechdel Test, but this film does have a greater female presence than most war movies.
