Description

While all the country's agriculture was conducted by collective and state farms, and this way seemed to be the only correct one, the director M. Litvyakov turned to the topic of individual farming, the "privateer". The film caused a storm of indignation from collective and state farm leaders, from the side of the party nomenclature. The question of the release of the picture on the screen was positively solved only in the Central Committee of the CPSU.
