The AN2 cannot stall, the worst it can do is mush into the ground at parachute descent speed. SOP for engine failure in IMC is stick hard back, slats open automagically and it mushes harmlessly into whatever terrain is around.The only logical reason for this one as filmed is an elevator jam hard upwards.
They did well to manage to hit the ground in a level attitude.
