The Soviet production drama “Komsomolsk” is the second independent film by the legendary director Sergey Gerasimov, for which he himself created the script in cooperation with Mikhail Vitukhnovsky and Zinovia Markina.
The plot of the picture
Komsomolsk-on-Amur became the goal of one of the first five-year plans of young socialist Russia. It was built by young people who readily responded to the call of the government to create a large industrial city in the Far Eastern taiga. The first builders of Komsomolsk sailed to the wild shores of the Amur on the steamer Columbus and among them was a young family of Solovyovs - Natasha (Tamara Makarov) and Vladimir (Ivan Novoseltsev). The newlyweds immediately quarreled over the fundamentally important and serious question of how their future city should develop.
The army of Komsomol members, capable of great labor exploits, enthusiastically and zealously took up hard physical work, immediately upon arrival at the destination, to which it was necessary to get for half a month. Strike and selfless work for the benefit of the Motherland united them in brigades, giving excess production plans almost every working day. Everyone worked well and fast. Including the women’s team Moti Kotenkova (Valentina Telegina), in which Natasha feels his own and the Mavrina brigade (Georgi Zhyonov) and even the hooligan and local Casanova Vanya Butsenko (Ivan Kuznetsov).
Among the workers who build the city, there are "unconscious elements" who are re-educated by the whole team, but these are isolated cases. In general, everyone treats their duties consciously and zealously: their successes are watched by the whole country and comrades cannot be let down. Even the enemy agent Chekanov (Victor Kulakov) has to try his best not to stand out from the general background. The construction of the garden city became a daily universal work, which does not stop for a minute.
Contemporary opinion
The film “Komsomolsk” with great accuracy conveys the atmosphere of everyday work of Komsomol new buildings of the early twentieth century and the spirit of common brotherhood, mutual assistance and faith in the bright ideals of the future. Gerasimov managed to reproduce on the screen not only the images of the “first builders of Communism”, but also their feelings and hopes, their unity in devotion to a very vague Idea, which supported in each strength for great achievements in inhumanly difficult conditions. close
