In the countryside, Vassily opposes the rich kulaks. The return of the young leader brings turmoil to the land he so loved. An ode to the start of collectivization in Ukraine. A delirious imaginary, between fruit and horses on the loose, running in undulating wheat fields. Dovzhenko combines topics such as birth, progress, solidarity and death. This is how one of the greatest achievements of Soviet mute film was born.
