Audience Member A young man's life as he turns twenty in the Soviet Union of the mid sixties. With this film, Khutsiyev gives us a priceless look at the life of a young man in the Russia of the time in a touching and charming film that represented a new and modern style of Soviet filmmaking sympathetic to its political times but hinting at a rise in the youth culture. Entertaining from start to finish despite its length that exceeds the three hours, this is a major work that perhaps never got the international exposure it deserves. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
