Perekop 1930 ( 5.5)

This revolutionary epic likens the push for industrialization of Soviet Ukraine with the battle for Perekop during the Civil War. A missing plow blade is presented as a symbol of the country's backward peasant economy that needs to be transformed in the course of the industrial construction. In an onslaught of rapidly changing images, Ukrainian village with its peasants suspicious of everything new, dramatically collides with the frenzy of working factories, plants, and mines.

Parental Rights 1930

The watch repairman practices what is known as "parental rights" – he mercilessly beats his son Boris for every misdemeanor. The boy grows up intimidated, angry, trusting no one, and befriending no one. One day, while the students at the polytechnic school where Boris studies are busy with a physical education class, he deliberately destroys a model that the students have worked so hard to build. The teacher prevents a cruel punishment of the culprit. The school community takes on the responsibility of re-educating Boris. Considered lost.
