It seems like someone else's joy, and on the soul a holiday This film in no way pretends to be an original plot, witty dialogue; and it does not have a single special effect, but nevertheless looks like a rare curiosity. For a couple of decades, we have become so used to brilliant tinsel, African passions and spectacular methods of murder that without all of the above, the picture seems bland and dull. Not this one. So many destinies are shown in passing. And as shown, in a few frames captured the essence!
A man whose entire family died in an accident. Some kind of special soulfulness, warmth and sadness literally saturated with the entire atmosphere of his hospitable home.
A woman whose happy arrival of her son from the army suddenly turned into trouble. These people, despite the misfortunes suffered, did not break down, did not become hardened, but remained empathetic and responsive people, able to sincerely rejoice in the happiness of others and sympathize with the troubles of others.
And of course, the main character of the picture paratrooper Sergey (A. Novikov) is a simple and at the same time very not simple guy who knows how to be friends, love and stand up for himself. A very rare case in the history of cinema: a paratrooper without an exemplary fight is like a gun without a shot.
The image of his beloved Olga is not very clear. At first glance - a modest, then a kind of not too smart semi-bohemian diva:
And Seryozha can drink a bucket of water in a volley!
And suddenly, almost biblical wisdom in dialogue with the mother. In a word, a very slippery girl.
