“I do not allow censorship to memory” – a dramatic film Alexandra Porokhovshchikov according to his script, in which the author of the picture played the main role - Alexander Mikhailovich Samokhin.
This Samokhin, whose motto: “I do not allow censorship to memory”, turned out to be a tough nut for Soviet officials. His personal data includes a repressed grandfather. Chinouchi are ready to close their eyes to this and “let go” Samokhin for a promotion, especially since his grandfather has already been rehabilitated, but Alexander persistently seeks an investigation into the events of the past years and refuses to pursue career growth. He has something to think about, for without the past there is no future, and tomorrow is valuable in the way today lives. close

The social ferment in late 19th century Russia which led to the 1917 Russian Revolution is movingly portrayed in this lengthy historical drama, which is very faithful to the 1907 novel The Mother by the celebrated Marxist writer Maxim Gorky (1868-1936). In the story, "the mother" (Inna Tchourikova) has no other recourse than to watch her decent, kindly husband turn into an animalistic, drunken brute as a result of working in the inhuman conditions of a steel mill in the town of Sormovo. When he begins to express his suppressed rage by beating her, she is defended by her teenaged son Pavel (depicted Viktor Rakov as an adult, Sacha Chichonok as a boy). After his father's death, Pavel is forced to go to work in the same factory. However, Pavel and his friends begin investigating Marxism and socialist thought, and work to organize their fellow workers. close
