“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

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
