- Early 40s, USSR. The plot of the picture is based on a story about schoolchildren who, like all their peers, love to play Cossack robbers and war games. The guys are divided into two teams, they arm themselves with everything they can - some even have water pistols - and fight under the warm summer sun. Each of them is a hero, until mom called for dinner. One day the South win, the next day the field remains for the North, and the game goes according to all the rules, with reconnaissance and captures of "tongues". But one day a big war comes to their yard - an insidious enemy attacked their homeland, violating all treaties and agreements. The boys cannot go to the front because they are still very young. But they become steadfast soldiers of another front, about which few people make films - labor, in the rear. The second part of the film will show us the daily life of those who were on duty on the roofs at night in anticipation of air raids, helping the families of older brothers and fathers who went to the front. Some became law enforcement officers in the rear instead of mobilized policemen, others worked assembling shells. The film was shot by director Alexander Razumny, also known for the film adaptation of Gaidar's story Timur and his team, and will be of interest to everyone who is fond of films of the war period. The tape was based on the story of the same name by Sergei Mikhalkov about the boys who helped the front in the rear. And even despite the fact that the film is over 70 years old, it looks fascinating even today, largely due to the camera work and the excellent acting of the guys, for whom the plot of the film was the surrounding reality.
